    Hi Merrill 18727

    Unfortunately yeah crappy and cranky feeling how I felt on loading dosesvof humira. Plus side felt better if I rested on loading day and felt 70% like old self around 6weeks in.

    Now on Secukinumab as humira stopped after really bad chest infection and now can't have it due to lung damage.

    Heres to best of luck with humira and really hope symtoms settle quick for you and you start getting your self back to as healthy as this disease allows. 

    Jo xx
