Went back to the doctor for my every other month check. Told him I felt Humira is not working like it had worked before. Since my back was 90% clear and now is 50 to 60% covered. along with other outbreaks on my body. So he changed my humira from every other week to weekly. is anybody on it biweekly and changed to weekly? Did the change help? Did any side effects show from the change? How long berfore clear again?


Thank you for your help and your input.

Hey Dennis,

Exact same story with me. I was almost clear and then in May and June both the P and PA started coming back. This past Wednesday was my first "weekly" shot. So far I have not had any breakthrough PA and it appears my skin is reacting quickly.

Let me know how it goes I took a shot today, but next saturday will be my first weekly shot.

I will keep you up to date.

I noticed you are from Florida. Me too, in West Palm area. I wonder if the extreme heat and humity of the summer could have something to do with the flares?
