Hi, Crohns itself can leave you very fatigued. I constantly feel it! I haven't experienced pains/aches but It is a side effect of humira.

Are the aches/pains really bad? Or can you manage? It may be worth discussing this with your Gastroenterologist ASAP, it may be to have couple of extra days off between injections may help, or they may suggest adding another medication alongside or changing altogether.

have you found the Humira has helped your bowels?

Thank you for your reply. Aches and pains not really bad but just annoying. Yes have helped bowels to a certain extent but would like them bit better. I am on Mezavant tablets with the Humira.

Hi, I haven't been on Humira long but my fatigue has suddenly gone really bag!!! I'm having very bad sweats, vertigo, passing urine a lot. Very bad anxiety. I was doing ok on it, my psoriasis improved a lot. But I don't feel great at the moments. Also have insomnia!! It's difficult to know if it's the Humira, Crohn's or both!!
