Guest guest Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 I'm on Humira once a week and it works wonders!! Started with Enbrel which worked for about 6 months then tapered off. When I switched to Humira I started at once a week right from the get go. I also take Sulfasalazine and Leuflonimide daily. I know some people take Methotrexate with it but I'm VERY allergic to it. Took one tablet and had EVERY non-lethal side effect! Lost 7 days of work and don't even remember the first three days! My Rheumy and the Ins. Co. have tried to get me down to every other week like is recommended by the Mfg. for Humira. I spent 6 months extending my doses out one day every 6 weeks or so. At 10 days I was miserable. At 11 days I was non functional. Without Humira I will be in a wheelchair. My body locks up and I can't move and the fatigue is miserable. I can't remember the names of my family, my dog, closest friends and coworkers. Humira gave me a new lease on life. Best of luck to you, Job in CT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
