Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 I was just looking at my humira ingredients on the package. Last week we were posting about humira and why it might burn. Someone said because of the preservatives....the package says that there are no preservatives in the humira. It does have sodium chloride and sodium hydroxide tho. Maybe it's the sodium ingredients that burn. I've been off of humira for over a month now with a cold. Had to take antibiotics for 10 days so was taken off of MTX too. I can't wait to get back on my meds in the next few days! They sure work for me. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Maggie http://www.4HockeyFans.com http://www.4FloridaHockey.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 Hi Maggie, what do you do for pain management while you are off the methotrexate and humira?

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 Well, I took my 500 mgs of naproxen and 2.5 mgs of prednisone a day. Before I got sick I was on 5mgs and my rd said to wait til I get back on humira to go to 2.5, but I went down anyways. I took hot bathes and used the hot tub. My RD's office said I had to tough it out. I feel like I've gone backwards without the meds. My right pinky is so swollen and my feet and back are killing me. Tomorrow I'll get back on the MTX, then Sunday or Monday I'll take humira. I'm lucky that I didn't have to have a job that I had to be at. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Maggie http://www.4HockeyFans.com http://www.4FloridaHockey.com -----Original Message-----From: Rheumatoid Arthritis [mailto:Rheumatoid Arthritis ]On Behalf Of DoreySent: Thursday, February 09, 2006 4:31 PMRheumatoid Arthritis Subject: RE: Humira and burning Hi Maggie, what do you do for pain management while you are off the methotrexate and humira?
