Humira
Tell me all about your experience with Humira. It will be my first biologic and I will be starting it in the next week or two.
Hi! I've been on it for exactly a year now and can't imagine life without it!!
It took a while to kick in.... I'd say 2-3 months for full effect like they always say lol.
I also take prednisone, Plaquenil and methotrexate. Sometimes you've got to get the correct mix for your body.
Good luck!!! 😉
It worked for me for about 5 years! It quit working though, and I've gone through almost everything else. I've had RA for 16 years. Right now rituxan is working for me!
Everyone is different. It didn't help me but caused skin problems--between it and Enbrel--neither helped. Pain and inflammation was still there. Hopefully it works for you!
Love and hugs!
I have been on Humira for almost 3 years now with great success. If you will allow the shot to warm up to room temperature before injection, you will not feel it at all. I am also on lefleunomide and take a strong multivitamin with iron because I am anemic and I have not had so much as a cold since I started taking them. My rheumatologist said it was the zinc and the extra Vitamin D that helped my immune system fight everything off. Good luck!
