OMG u r so brave ! I have psoriasis and taking my first injection. Although I was on Remicade then Enbrel now on my way to use Humeria =0( Are u losing hair? Cause I know I am and it is really freezy. Take care
i don't get shots but my mom was a nurse she says wave your hand over where the alchohol is and dry it then do it. I used to get growth hormone shots all tetime.:o IT won't be then.:D Try it
HI, thanks for sharing, I'm doing my first shot today,. I was wondering, do you do your mtx the same day ever or spread it out? I took my mtx yesterday and wondering if it's too much on my system in a 24 hour period, or maybe i"m making excuses lol
@brooklynlulu, I do my mtx on Thursdays and my humira every other Tuesday, so I guess its a bit spread out. I dont think it matters if you do them in the same day, as long as you are injecting in different areas, say one in an arm and one in a leg or your stomach. Remember not to do your injections in the same spot each time! When I first started mtx I was using the same area each time and developed scar tissue and a rash, which both went away after some time of not injecting there.
@jmh71487 Hi, thanks so much for responding. I put the Humira off a couple of days then the day I intended so ti spread it out as well. I do my Mtx on Wed and my Humira will now be every other Friday. I no longer do mtx shots, I swear the pills just don't work as well, but, I'm hoping Humira will set me free from the dark days of RA. Oddly, the day after I gave myself the shot of Humira, I woke feeling quite good, now mind, I was in a flare for months! Go figure, still doing ok, crossing fngs!
Thanks....I start humira injections soon...not looking forward to it, but I would rather do the injections than deal with all this pain! I hope u are doing well!
