Anyone On Humira For Long Time Periods?
A myHSteam Member asked a question 💭

I HATE BOILS!! My armpits stay infected. The odor makes me want to stay hidden from society. I was on Humira for only a few short months. Got a bad viral infection in my throat stopped humira for a week or two and I got better. My Dr informed me the common cold could be pneumonia for me. I want to know how life has been since others have tried humira.

I was on Humira for a year. I saw no benefits. My dermatologist was convinced I would go into remission. I didn't. I was constantly getting cellulitis, gained a ton of weight and had horrible joint pain. I chose to go off Humira.

I’ve been on Humira for one full year as of 3/21. Exactly on the anniversary of my day one of humira I’m experiencing a very severe flare up. While the humira did clear the boils as they still leaked constantly, all my shirts armpits are stained.

I don’t feel like humira did anything for me as far as the boils are concerned, but it did stop the arthritis in my legs which appeared out of no where. One day I woke up and just couldn’t move my legs .

I’ve been on Humira for about a little over a year now and about 5 months ago I started to get a really bad rash all over my body and turns out that the dosage I was taking for Humira was to much and now I’m also dealing with medical induced psoriasis. I’m seriously contemplating on telling my Dermotoligist I want off of Humira!
