Dear Crohnies...I am a reader but not a usual poster (my intestinal biopsies have been either Crohns OR Bechets and I have some type of sponyloarthropathy causing sacroiliac inflammation, etcetera).

Thanks for ANY experience or advice stories!

My question:

Has anyone experienced thrombophlebitis/DVTs while off AND on biologics? I have a history of clotting while OFF biologics and am now experiencing superficial thrombophlebitis in my hand/arm while taking both Humira weekly and fairly high-dose colchicine.

I swell/flush/have low grade fever post Humira injection over the past few months and thought I was experiencing Humira failure. My amazing Rheum is aware and currently watching. I am just wondering if anyone has had a similar experience with blood clotting over the course of their disease?

Thanks for any sharing. Feeling alone is horrible.

Jess-supernova.
