So I've been on imuran/Humira about a year or so, and the combination has put my uc in remission. That is wonderful, but I am definitely dealing with side effects from the meds too. I catch a lot...
Humira, imuran, synthroid, liothyronine, fluconazole once a week...
Has anyone had breast augmentation surgery with uc and being on meds? I'm just curious if the recovery was any different due to our lowered immune system thanks guys...
Thanks guys I appreciate you :)) yeah it sounds like I'm ok most likely. I actually didn't know you were supposed to pinch the skin the whole time so I'm glad I know that now...
Pb- Thank you for the answer :))) so I did pinch the skin at first, but then I let go cuz the injection for some reason hurt so bad. But I didn't pull the pen away when it hurt, but did let go of the...
