Hello - I was diagnosed with RA a few months ago. Supposed to start HUMIRA next month, current treatment is not working well. Can someone share their experiences with HUMIRA? Seems like the "potential" side effects can be as bad or worst than RA. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hi Jerry, I was diagnosed over 2 years ago and they started me off with Embril. I was changed to Humira after a flare up during my honeymoon. My own personsl experience with Humria has been a good one. The first injection I had was painful but then they change me to the pen and I have found my injections less painful. I have not had any side effects since being put on the med and seem to be functioning well. I hope you have the same positive effects.
I have RA and my doctor suggested Embrel, but I chose to try an alternative method. I have had tremendous success with using some natural products that have no side effects. I have my life back. Please contact me at esbest@sbcglobal.net so that I can share these ideas with you.
