Hi everyone ... thankyou for letting me in  ..... luv sue xxxxx Sue_c,

 
I've never taken Humira, but I think you need to call your RD right away.  It sounds like you may be having an allergic reaction.  The rash on the facial cheeks sounds like it could even be drug-induced lupus.
 
 
kweenb2009-02-22 11:13:53I had no side effects like that with Humira, but if I were you, I'd call my doc pronto.thanks for joining us!  we are glad to have you.  you are at the right place but please have this one checked out.  if you are like me you hate to call the doctor or go to the hospital but i think you should not wait.  go , run , now !

Hi Sue c and welcome!

Don't worry about the moaning.  However, your symptoms sound serious enough to talk to the doctor about it like someone else suggested.  Not everyone will tolerate Humira.  There are other ones you may tolerate better.  I had no problems on it but I did better on the Enbrel for 9 months, some do well longer. It is all trial and error to see which medication works best for you.

Let us know what the doctors says about these side effects.

Feel better soon.  take care.

Hi Sue and Welcome.  CALL YOU DOCTOR and don't inject with Humira again till you talk or see your RD.  Definately sounds like a side effect of Humira and can worsen if you continue injecting.  Please keep up updated.  I'm on Humira but haven't had any side effects like this.  Take care.  LindyI am on the same as you. The only thing I have noticed is headache constantly. Call your doctor and let us know how u are doingWelcome Sue. I have to agree with everyone else-please call the doctor. Best of luck to you! Hi Sue!  Welcome!Sounds like you may be allergic to it? So call your doctor. Hope you are alright. We all have a tendency to moan and sound miserable from time to time. So you came to the right place for that. If you are really bad off maybe go to the EROOM for some relief of an allergic reaction. I just had an allergic reaction recently. It can be pretty misserable. Welcome!!Hi sue,
I wanted to say hello. I am new here and everyone has been really helpful and kind. I am sticking around and hope you do also.

Hi Sue, a very big welcome to you, sorry you need to be here, hopefully by now you have alerted your RD or at least your GP, let us know how you get on.  By the way Moaning is what we come here for at times cos we know everyone understands.  Best of luck, Janie.  I agree......sounds like an allergic reaction. Call dr or go to er. If you have benedryl, take a couple and see if that helps. I was on humira and broke out in a rash and had to take two bendryl a half hour before I injected and for two days after. It kept it at bay but the humira ended up not working anyway.
Please get some medical advice soon and let us know how it turns out.
take care
I havent been on Humira but I would sure get it checked out immediately.
