So I have been feeling rather off lately, very tired, low grade fever, some d, and just a general feeling of not begin well at all.

This Monday I was supposed to give myself a Humira but since I am allergic to it I need to take drugs the day before taking, on the day of the shot and the day after.
Since I have always forgotten to take the drugs I have been putting it off to do the shot, until today.

Well to make a long story short, this week I have been feeling better by the minute. I was wondering if all of theses symptoms could be related to Humira ? And that by missing 4 days of it that I could be feeling better right away or if it was just a funny timing for the symptoms to go away.

Have you looked at the very extensive list of side effects of Humira. I did and took my ages to read it there were so many! How long have you been taking the Humira and have these symptoms only started recently?


I did see on here that some people can develop a reaction to it even after quite a while, and if you are allergic to it so much so that you have to take drugs for 3 days to conteract the injection, surely that isn't going to help as it stays in your system so what happens after you stop taking the drugs on day after injection.

See what happens when you take next injection and if symptoms return. If so may be time to talk to your GI.

I have been on it for 14 months now.

I will monitor my symptoms and see what happens I am meeting my GI in two weeks
