Loving humira so far. Under ten D per day, and I'm due for my next one on Monday. I have a friend who has a horrible cold and chest infection. Last two days, iv been offering to take her daughter home, so she can rest. Well, that saying about no good deed going unpunished seems to once again be coming true for me. She said she's up all night, watery eyes, blah blah, and basically, without the chest infection, I'm starting to feel really unwell. No cough though. Being on 3 immune sup, I'm hoping by Monday its no full on cold symptoms, but if it is...would my doc put humira on hold? I soooo hope not!!!!
 
I dunno. My doc only increases my 6MP and I get sick more often. Even though he knows I get sick, I still have to take it. Let your doc know and find out for sure is all I can really say.
 
On infliximab I did too. But someone here wrote their humira was put on hold until they get better, I think with the flu?!?! I haunt slept much last night, and just basically feel like a flu is starting, stiff all over, so I thought if it's worse in the next few days, I'll just have to tell my gp my symptoms and hope I don't need to stop humira for a couple of weeks. Cos then there's no loading dose, and I don't want to go back to 15-20 D per day :/
