Humeria options

Hello everyone :)

I hope you are doing moderately ok and enjoying some of the sunshine!

I have been on Humeria now for all most two years and unfortunately it is starting to wear off. Its only covering me for 4/5 days rather than the normal 2 weeks which isn't fair! I'm off to see the consultant at the end of the month. I know he will suggest methotrexate and I am quite tempted to try it again (despite being on and off it a few times and having horrible side effects). 3/4 months ago I was also diagnosed with crohns disease. I was wondering if anyone had both RA and crohns and what drugs they took to cover both?

I'm also interested in exploring the idea of monthly infusions? How does everyone else find them, does it cover the majority of your flare ups?

Any advice/tips welcome!! xx

So very sorry. To have RA is bad enough but chrohns too is very mean indeed. I too am on Humira and worried its not working so well after just six months but will plod on. I'm suddenly getting the skin reactions too and don't know if that's an indicator. I was quite ill on methotrexate injections and wouldn't be allowed to have it again. There are lots of options that cover both diseases. Good luck and keep smiling. Don't be pushed into one you don't want. X

Hi, I don’t have crohns so sorry can’t help with that but I am on Humira for arthritis. My arthritis is quite aggressive so my consultant put me on weekly rather fortnightly Humira injections which I guess may be an option for you to try.
