Quick update.
I've been on adalimumab for 10 months and am still 100% free, still no side effects or anything.
I had to have minor dental work so came off treatment for two weeks. I'm due my injection tomorrow but I've had a cough and cold this last week, though only minor. I'm not sure if I'm ok to take my next one.
What are your thoughts?
Was you told to stop because of advice, I've never been told to stop for any medical or dental procedures.
As for stopping your shot tomorrow personally I would still take it, if you were new to the treatment I probably suggest holding off but at 10 months you should be fine ............................... But I'm not expert.
With Humira, I will skip a dose if I'm feverish but not for a mild cold. If I'm not sure, I'll ask the prescribing doctor for advice. Nobody wants to get sicker while on a biologic. But nobody wants the disease to get worse, either. Such a balancing between the two. Good luck.
I'm glad you are doing so well, psoriasis-wise. That's really wonderful.
