humira and sun exposure

Hi, patients receiving humira are prone for developing serious infections. Lymphoma and other malignancies have been reported from patients receiving this medication. So, you can try to avoid infective zones and also restrict your physical work load. Take care.

I took an Hiv AG/AB 4th Gen test at 51 days post exposure and it came back negative. I have been extremely stressed out and have had anxiety problems since the possible exposure. Ive been taking clonazapem for about 5 weeks. Ive been showing symtoms for about 6 weeks. Trouble eating,weight loss, small rashes and red spots, low basal body temp, itching, night sweats.I havent noticed any fever or swollen lymph glands. I also have suffered from psoriasis most of my life.

Just like at the Dead Sea spa in Israel I called and asked what there treatment was and then just did it myself at home. Sun, mud, sea salt bath and message. Also, I would think about what foods your eating. Your okay. I healed it- it's your nervous system. Don't be angry, or upset --relaxation.

I get the brown spots too. I think it's the thyroid and the sun. I also get REALLY flaky skin. My spots are on the forehead and down my right cheek, they seem to fade a bit when winter comes. I also use Oil of Olay Definity. It's a correcting/protective lotion with an SPF of 15. It's a bit pricey (at least for my broken wallet) abot $23, $20 on sale at RitAid for 1.7 oz., it also has a smaller tube for free to keep in your pocketbook.

statistically 1 out of every 2-3 of us has hsv1 and 1 out of every 4-5 has hsv2 - a lot of folks who take humira, are already going to have herpes whether they know it or not! Of course you also can contract herpes simplex, either orally or genitally, while taking humira too. It also can cause shingles to occur - you'd have to have had chicken pox in the past before starting humira in order to have a shingles reactivation.

My gastro is going to start me on Humira and my question is, does Humira aid with digestion and stop the diarrhea. Thanks!

I feel tired a lot and I have tenderness under my armpits and around groin that comes and goes. Ive had some red spots on my arms and legs know my neck is starting to feel sore. I do have a cough but its not dry and I do smoke a lot. 3. I do have psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and gout. 4. Negative antibody test at week 4. Negative Rna Pcr quantative test at week 5. negative antibody at week 5. Negative AG/AB 4th generation at week 7. Negative rapid POC antibody at week 9.

I changed to Humira recently and was wondering if anybody has had success with humira who has ankylosing spondylitis. Any feedback would be appreciated.

I have RA and use Humira/methotrexate. How long do I have to be off Humira to get a yellow fever (and/or tyhphoid) vaccine? How long to I have to stay off Humira after the vaccine?

Hi, Are you talking about a malignant nodule in the lung? The exposure from the sun will place you at risk for cancers of the skin. While there are cancers of the skin that would have a tendency to metastasize the lung (melanoma), these would usually have a preliminary finding in the skin.

I have injected humira 2 weeks ago and after 3 days developed a itch and cant sleep. will it subside?

he thinks that i will get some help from humira and i am to start that this week. i have done searches but only find info on humira induced lupus, nothing about treating lupus with humira. is anyone on here taking humira for lupus? any advise would be greatly appreciated. thanks!!

13 years ago I was diagnosed with genital herpes which I contracted from my now ex. I married 8 years ago to a good man with a bad case of Psoriasis. About 6 months ago he was diagnosed with Psoriatic arthritis after having his hands and body start crippling his abailities in daily living, and began taking Humira as treatment. Recently he has decided that we can no longer be intimate and we need to separate.

If you had acquired HIV from this exposure the disease is treatable and for persons who take their treatment as prescribed, the disease is quite manageable with most people living a close to normal lifespan. At this time, 5 weeks after your exposure, you can be tested and find out if you were infected. At this time, the results of a 4th generation, combination HIV p24 antigen/HIV antobody test will be conclusive.

There are enough other sites and posts of the same complaint and also in the first 6 months on Humira. It was about my 3rd injection I think when I started having tooth pain in my upper front teeth. Within a couple of days, my bottom front teeth stated hurting. I skipped a week of Humira under Dr advice incase I was fighting a sinus infection. Symptoms got better. Then I started back on my Humira last night and my teeth are killing me again.

I am 22 white circumcised male, also Crhons patient on Humira (at that point was 1 month of Humira) Does that increas my chances of hiv? 2. If she was totally dry, does that mean that there were less potential infected fluids? 3. What keeps me a litle better is that many people insist that cuba has one of the smallest percentages of aids in the world, and the majority of the hiv + are males. Could you confirm? 4.

I have been treated for rheumatoid arthritis with Humira for 7 months including a combination of Humira and methotrexate for the past 2 months. I also take 5mg of prednisone, and 6 Azulfadine tablets each day. I was taking Humira once every fourteen days and I am on 15mg of methotrexate a week. About a month ago, I started experiencing numbness in my toes and feet. I mentioned it to my rheumatologist but she wasn't concerned and simply told me it wasn't rheumatoid arthritis.

I was on tx. during the katrina nightmare, heat and sun exposure gave me the worst rash and caused a tremendous amount of itching. Stay out of the sun and heat while on tx.

From reading the forums, I gather that its a low risk activity, but I dot take Humira and Steroids for rhemetoid arthritis and was wondering if that made me more susceptible to infection via fingering than someone not on meds.

I have ankylosing spondylitis currently take Humira and antiflamitories. I avoid sugar and certain meats like chicken and pork to avoid attacks. However one thing I can't avoid is weather changes such as spring and fall. This last year has been a real rough the attacks have been really bad. Any suggestion?

1) How did I get infected if my first most likely exposure was a good 15-16 months after his original episode had been treated and he had not experienced any visible symptoms since? How did he have another wart appear now, 21 months after his first and only episode? Could ours’ be a case of "ping-pong", though everything I've read suggests this doesn’t happen?

On doctor suspects that because I have not taken Humira injection for about a month that it might have played a role in this mystery, Has anyone had anything similar to this or have insight on success and failures from Humira and Remicade, I really appreciate any and all responses and insight

I am very active outdoors and would hate to have to stay out of the sun. I use sun screens and still I get this condition.

At first Humira worked completely, but for the last 3 month I now have got again explosive Diarrhoea and bleeding. I spent a minimum of 10 times running to the toilet a day, and get anxious going out and that causes stress and then more flare ups. I had a SeHCAT Scan for suspected bile acid malabsorption which I have not got and is not my cause for my Diarrhoea. I also take 60mg and 16mg Loperamide a day but Diarrhoea will not stop, only with Prednisolone Steroids.
