Hello, I've just started on Yuflyma.Previously on Humira I developed odd veins on my back and was taken off Humira and put on Rinvoq which caused liver damage and so was taken off Rinvoq in Sept. Had temporary Kennalog injection, and then put on Yuflyma.

Saw nurse for blood tests this morning and she checked my back, same reaction as last time, but not quite as bad - though only done one injection thus far.

Anyone else experienced anything similar?

Have a look at this article: Clin Med Res. 2018 Jun;16(1-2):41–46. doi: 10.3121/cmr.2017.1364

It describes the various skin problems associated with biological treatments - most of the people described do seem to have changed to something else to resolve the problem, so it may be a trial and error procedure for you.

Your photo does look similar to one of the ones described in the article.

Not what you're looking for?
