Humira Questions...help

Hi, sorry you are having such a rough time! I started Humira after not responding to Pred and 6MP. I haven't noticed any positive effects yet, but it's only been three and a half weeks. Some people...

Well, that does it. I'm at my wit's end

Adhesions- I never thought about that! Can they detect those on a test? I know once you get them, you might as well keep them because they will more than likely come back. Its ironic, but I would...

Well, that does it. I'm at my wit's end

I've been having extremely bad upper right abdominal pain since mid May. After months of various treatments and tests, the doc finally decided I had a nonfunctioning gallbladder. I had the HIDA scan...

For those who've had problems with Asacol

I take 12/day. The only side effect I've noticed is increased hair loss in the drain. :-) I've been on this dose for almost a year. Good luck to you, I hope it works!...

Do Humira Shots hurt and how is it doing it every other week?

I started Humira a week and a half ago. I went from having D several times a day for years, to being constipated today. Hoping it will even itself out, lol. I use the pens and did all four shots in...

Bodyworld Exhibit--OT

I saw it in San Francisco a few years ago. Even though I'm a biologist, it still made me queasy seeing actual dead humans. I thought it was amazing though, and I stayed for over two hours. I thought...

Upper abdomen symptoms?

Yes, absolutely. Is it where it almost feels like its your bottom ribs that hurt? Thats how I feel. My idiot doc said there was nothing on my CT scan in that region so it couldn't be the CD that was...

Well, I'm on my way to get my loading dose of Humira..

Hi all, Just got back from the docs. Did all four shots myself. It wasn't that bad, but it did burn like hellfire for a few seconds. I'm over it now though. I feel kind of woozy but I think its due...

Well, I'm on my way to get my loading dose of Humira..

and I'm super nervous. It seems like everyone that works at my doc's office is about as sharp as a bowling ball. Yesterday I asked the receptionist what I should bring to my appointment and she said,...

Humira Approval?

Lauren, I have Blue Cross and I'm going through the exact same thing right now. According to the GI, Blue Cross approved me, but for some reason my pharmacy can't seem to get that information. So...

I drink the V8 fusion. It has fruit in it as well. Tasted terrible at first, but once I got used to it, it wasn't that bad. :cool:...

Worse from Entocort, Azathioprine???

I was on Entocort 9mgs for five weeks. I had horrible headaches every day and it did nothing to help my CD symptoms. Actually, I went to the bathroom more often. It was awful. :mad:...

neurotin

Hi Prof, I assume you are talking about Neurontin aka Gabapentin. I've been taking 1200mg a day for almost four years and have never noticed this side effect. But of course, everyone is different....

Crohn's Arthritis

My knees are killing me. I went to an orthopedic surgeon and had a bunch of tests done and they told me that I was probably pre-arthritic and they said I had cysts in the back of my knees. I know...

Hi Vicky, I weigh 110 lbs and I'm taking 75mgs. However, the side effects are so bad my doc sent me in for tests due to suspected bone marrow suppression. Even though my blood values came out okay,...

My doc raised my dosage of 6mp from 50mg to 75mg two weeks ago. Since then I have felt nauseated, had extreme fatigue, loss of appetite, headaches, and abdominal pain. I've been running a low grade...

Bipolar and Prednisone

Hi Sukay, thanks for the reply. I pretty much relapsed into a nervous breakdown on Tuesday and had to rush in to see my psychiatrist who put me on Ativan and Abilify. I'm still in a manic state, and...

Hey guys, I've been posting on the Chron's disease board, but I've been having a unique problem that others cannot really grasp if they don't have BP. My doctor put me on prednisone and I think it's...
