Has anyone taken this medicine, and if so how they are copying with it?

Hi Natasha I was started on Humira back in November, it seems to be helping so far. I still had a flare so had to get a Steroid injection in March. But I didn't seem to have any major side effects that i noticed - itchy eyes but have hayfever so anti histamines are norm for me and they helped. I'm on Methx injections weekly too as it didn't work on it's own. I get weary and down but think that's part of RA rather than the meds to be honest. if you are taking it or due to take it I hope it works for you take care x

Hi Natasha its definitely worth taking humira it does control the disease very well in my case the down side is it really suppresses my immune system but that's the trade off I really think you should give then treatment a try. Hope this opinion helps.

It does thankyou. Its nice hearing it from someone who is taking it, and not a doctor. but the docs said that i do not need to have this as a medication, which is even better news :)
