I’ve been on it for a year I think it keeps it in check

I have been taking humira for around 3 years now. It definitely helped with my symptoms. There are a few side effects, it lowers your ability to fight infections. I was worried about that... Considering I already had infections with the HS. The first couple of doses were rough... Because it definitely did something to my immune system because I got a flu like reaction I guess you could say. After I got over that, it hasn't been bad at all. It helps by blocking tnf proteins that cause inflammation.

Love humira. New person.

I have just been on Humira for a month. I felt a big difference after the first two initial injections. I'm not tired anymore, when I have a flare, it's different than before Humira. It's far less pain, the lesions drain and I forget about it. Before, sometimes I had a hard time walking and the pain was almost unbearable. I eat what I want now. Yesterday, I ate Pizza, today, I had Brownies for dessert. My Nurse told me that the Boils from HS comes from your body, not food and I can eat whatever I want. She said the boils I get now is the Humira going down in the Tunnels and getting the inflammation up. I was afraid of the side affects but I realized that all medicine have side affects but everyone don't get them. That's my experience with Humira. I hope I helped. 😀
