For Ankylosing Spondylitis "Tried on Humira but had a hiccup cough shortly after the injection and ended up with itchy rashes within a few days of each injection. Stopped Humira after two injections. Tried Cimzia today, immediately had a migraine headache and hot flash with increased blood pressure. Ten minutes later, I had horrible post-nasal drip with lung spasm-like coughs with slight hoarseness. Noticed thirty minutes later blister-like hive patches on the left arm along an aggravated nerve path. Guess I'm allergic to it too. Good luck to everyone else trying this medication in hopes of ending their pain and ongoing joint damage. It doesn't work for me and I'm not willing to take the risks of continuing this medication."
