Humira For Hs Feeling Bad Is There An End

I have been on Humira for 2 months now for HS. The shot almost instantly makes my muscles ache, my bones ache, no appetite, have trouble sleeping, etc.

Are the side effects that I have listed normal? Is there an end to treatment, or just on-going?

Yes, those are all normal side effects to Humira, as listed by the FDA. You may also experience nausea, dizziness and headache. In some cases, they have been so severe that people had to stop treatment with it.

The duration of treatment will depend on how your respond to it.

Is there anything else I can help with?

No, you have just reiterated my fears. I spoke to my nurse and Dr. wants to change dose. I would guess this would be to 1x weekly - as per new FDA guidelines. This will be even tougher for me.

I will just stick it out the best I can. I just know that I do not want the flap surgery. I am only going in, if I can get resurfacing. It is scary.

My Dr. has increased my dose to new FDA guidelines of 1x weekly. This has in turn made me very dizzy, to vertigo. Loss of appetite. The muscle aches have almost gone away, however I have 2 active tracks that reactivate with every shot. This I do not understand??? I am going into stage 3 now. I have multiple spots with clear skin. Is the Co2 Laser resurfacing surgery as good as the flap surgery, does anyone know?? I also heard that the longer you wait into stage 3 the more your success rate goes down? Is this true?? I am weak as a kitten taking 1x weekly and have no appetite with the dizziness and vertigo. I am losing 2 lbs per week on avg. I have some extra weight left, so I feel I can keep trying this for awhile longer. Still with the same opinion the I do not want the flap surgery. Too many scars from this disease already. Must have dozens!
