Humira, MTX, Prednisone and Plaquenil

July 14, 2005

????Does anyone out there take this same combo of drugs? And what did

you take prior to these? I am looking for an alternate source to

purchase Humira at, my insurance has a 20% copay which is around

$250.00 just for the Humira. Any suggestions or links would be

appreciated. My name is and I am new to this group. I have

been blessed, I use that term loosely, with RA for 5 years now. I

also was blessed with Type 1 Diabetes and Hypothyroidism when I was 30

years old. Thats 12 years now of poking and sticking myself. None of

these auto-immune diseases are hereditary in my family. My MD is

stumped as to why these all came on suddenly, probably stress she

said.

Thanks to all who contribute to this site, I have learned alot already.

People who have one autoimmune disorder are more prone to get others.

Sorry that you got so many of them. I hope you can get some help with

the Humira; that's a lot to pay for a month's supply. I hope my

insurance continues to pay for my Enbrel. They recently raised my

co-pay from $25 to $40, but that's still a bargain. Good luck. Sue
