I just started Cimzia 4 weeks ago . The first two weeks were heaven ....now I have painful bumps on my scalp also ! A few other mild side affects too but I'm waiting to see if I will adjust . I am finding that taking L-Lysine tablets , a 1000 whatever that says , can't remember but its over the counter and also my doctor knows , has started to work .

Yes! The lumps on my scalp come and go but are tender. My Rheumatologist looked at me like I was crazy. The lumps were not there when she examined me. Iā€™m only on prednisone at this point.

Yes, but I also have lupus, which can also cause hair and scalp inflammation.

I have experienced hair loss with methotrexate. Now take multivitamin for women but also biotin. It makes a huge difference.
