Subject: Humira & headaches
Hello all, I'm new round these parts so let me give you my back story: I've been suffering from psoriatic arthritis since about 2002 and after trying various medications I was eventually put on Methotrexate which worked fine. I had to come off it when we tried for a baby - all went well, he's now 10 months old - However when I went back onto Methotrexate, it affected my white blood cell count and put me in hospital. I was started on Humira injections in April and it has worked a treat, I'm better than I've ever been... but since about August I've been getting these regular headaches and weird tingling sensations in my head, my GP sent me for a CT scan which I'm told showed that there was nothing serious going on and that this 'could' be a Humira side effect. However I can't help be paranoid that something else is going on up there and was wondering if anyone else has had similar reactions to Humira. Phew! That's it!
