Crohn's Disease, Maintenance
"This medication has been a miracle for me. After loading dose, by day 5 it was like a light switch was toggled. I&#039;ve been 95% better and feel normal again for first time in 15 years (I&#039;m 36). Nothing else worked and I was miserable with low quality of life. I still have to change my automatic way of thinking: scouting out nearest bathrooms, foregoing meals before social events, etc. I&#039;m gradually branching out from my safe foods list (very small by the time I started Humira). The only side effect had been more severe allergies than usual and a few headaches here and there. The shots are extremely painful for me, but 10-15 seconds of extreme discomfort for 15 Crohn&#039;s-free days seems like a very fair trade. So thankful for this medication."
