For Spondyloarthritis "Side effects from Cimzia last about a day or two after injection (slight fatigue, mild headache, and mild diarrhea). Nothing compared to my life before Cimzia. Cimzia has lowered GI distress by over 80% and joint pain by about 50%. I have had dark bruising or redness, swelling, and rash at the injection site, but it never lasts more than a week. It also doesn't happen every time. I do place a timer on my phone to remind me when I'm due, as well as the last injection site, because it's easy to forget. You do want to move around each injection. I also make sure the Cimzia is not super cold before injecting, and I go very slowly, as it seems to not burn as badly when injecting as well. I did have a horrible reaction to Humira, within 12 hours, I came down with an intense pneumonia. The docs think it was an adverse reaction, thankfully, I have never had that with Cimzia."

For Rheumatoid Arthritis "I have been suggested CIMZIA when I informed my doctor that I plan on having a second kid. I am not really sure if CIMZIA is good or bad. I just had the 1st dose of CIMZIA and have experienced stomach pain, irregular period, and constant headaches. I am trying to reach out to the doctor to know if I should even be continuing this drug, and plus to mention other scary side effects they show on Google."

For Crohn's Disease, Maintenance "This medicine has given me my life back. I no longer worry about knowing where every restroom is, wherever I go. My only side effect is a headache the day after the injections."
