For Crohn's Disease "It took doctors years to diagnose me with moderate to severe Crohn's. I've been on Humira for 8 months now, and I feel the best that I have ever felt. I rarely get sick, and I have more energy to keep up with my active lifestyle. The only side effect was that I got two very small marks of psoriasis, which were gone within a couple of days. So far, so good for me."

For Plaque Psoriasis "I have been on Humira for over 5 months. I am not seeing any improvement. It looks like one big red blob on both upper and lower legs. In addition, I have gained 15 lbs. I got psoriasis from taking Harvoni."

For Plaque Psoriasis "After taking Humira for 3 months, the plaques are a very tiny bit better but itch horribly. Unfortunately, I now also have pustular psoriasis, and the psoriatic arthritis that hadn't been too much of a problem is much worse. I don't know why doctors want patients to continue this drug when it makes things worse. I had about 50% coverage with plaques. Now I have about 30% pustular in areas I've never had it before - back, underarms, face, arms, hands, legs, feet. Psoriasis is truly a terrible disease. Western medicine needs to quit poisoning people and get to the root."

For Psoriatic Arthritis "I was put on Humira for my psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis 7 months ago. Since using this medicine, my psoriasis has been worse than it has been in years. It has had the opposite effect on me. I still have the pain of psoriatic arthritis. The doctor and I are working on finding me another treatment."

For Hidradenitis Suppurativa "It not only gave me sweats, chills, diarrhea, and massive headaches, it also gave me tons of red and purple spots all over my body and a rare form of psoriasis. Yay. This drug sucked."
