Hey! I’ve just started on Humira a week ago and experienced migraines, stomach pain and lots of gas as well. However it’s made me super hungry so I went a little in the other direction. I contacted my nurse and she said it’s all normal reactions, if it becomes intolerable than to let her know, otherwise try and take some Tylenol or something for the discomfort, drink lots of water, and keep food pretty bland until your system can adjust. You’ve given it quite the shock with the knew medication and it will take some time to adjust. Listen to your body, and be patient, but if it becomes unbearable don’t suffer and call your nurse or doctor. No question or concern is silly. Wishing you the best of luck , I hope the Remicade works for you 💕

I think everyone has a different reaction to remicade. At first remicade used to make me go to the bathroom A LOT, but now that I’ve been having it for 3 years I don’t go to the bathroom during infusions. Talk to your doctor about any side effects that you’re having.
