I'm now double (weekly) dosing- will see how it goes. Remicade was losing its effectiveness within 2 weeks (this for a drug that is supposed to last 8 weeks between doses), and Humira has only been lasting a week for a drug that is supposed to last two between doses) so weekly Humira for the time being. With remicade I was getting joint aches after a few months, and an elevated ANA so I guess my body was rejecting it/ booting it out of the blood and thus wouldn't last. On Humira the only sign of allergy so far has been a mild soreness at the tip of my lips (got that with Remicade too but it was worse), and it seems to be abating with each injection so I'm hoping that my body is getting used to it now. Either that or it is getting booted out so fast that it too will soon be useless. Time will tell.
Pancolitis >20 years, allergic to all 5ASAs
Tried everything under the sun (natural and alternative)
Some partial success with TSO but was too expensive to keep up
Remicade Humira, lots of probiotics, entocort, tapering pred again, maybe surgery this year
