Hi. So are you saying youre needle phobic? I ask as before I got RA I used to be nervous of needles. However since RA Ive had so many jabs and bloods that they dont bother me at all now. Ive been on Humira since December and had no problems at all. No pain no stinging. In fact I have to look at the window on the pen to make sure its done as I dont feel a thing.

Are you experiencing pain and is that whats caused your fear? If it is maybe try on your thigh if you usually inject in your tummy?

No I’m not needle phobic I think it’s cos humira does increase the risk of panic attacks apparently

As kalms is herbal i can't see a problem,but first before you buy them ask the chemist who does your prescriptions darling.xxx

Best to ask the pharmacist! They can look up the interactions if they don't already know.

I don't expect a pharmacy would know. You could look online on the humira website, it might tell you. I personally can't see why there would be a problem with Kalms, I take a lot of other stuff with the humira (sleep inducing stuff - that's all prescribed), but obviously it's only my opinion.

Please do not presume anything is safe. Always check with a pharmacist. They are the best qualified when talking about drug interactions.

Definitely the humira

Well done for making the connection

Humira creates crippling anxiety and depression in some people.

The longer you take it the worse things get.
