Humira Reviews

Worked great for about 2 years. Then stopped
Working / Worked
But it made her terrible sick. Very flu like achy and nauseous so we had to stop taking it.
I dont like the injections but the result is great. At first the injection wouldnt last two weeks. I had to do them weekly for a short period of time. Now I am back to injections once every two weeks. My energy level was increased tremendously as I was in pretty bad shape. I have had no major side effects. Minor side effects include bruising at injection site burning sensation from injected med. slight weight gain.

gives me a bad headaches

seems to be working
I am currently on Humira and been on Humira for 2 years! Its great because I am allergic to Remicade

It worked for a little while, but not well enough.
Helps to control spasms in my colon. Helps my ibs.
The shots are painful but it is helping me. Helps with nausea.
