medication question

Hello, I have had Behcet's for the past 18 years and usually respond to steroids, colchicine and Otezla. Having inner ear issues, antibodies and heart problems along with my major debilitating headaches. We can't seem to get them under control and doctor wants to try Humira. Is anyone using this medication? Just wondering what side effects you are experiencing and if it helps.

thank you for your time and hope all feel better soon.

Hello. I was on Humira and methotrexate combo for about 7 months for something that was not behcets but believed to be spondlyoarthritis. I had no side effects and it did not eliminate my symptoms at all. I hope you find relief if you do try this. Its an injectable pen and quite easy to use. Good luck.
