Well, congrats on the good appt with the doc! Sounds very promising!!

Your iron count will definitely be important for pregnancy so glad to hear thats rising as well!

From my understanding, with each shot of the humira, things should get better for about 3 months or so. Apparently it takes about 3 months to feel the full affect but so far it is helping a lot with the joint pain and fatigue. I do them weekly and have done 5 injections. No improvement on my bowels so not sure if thats an indication that I don't have crohns or just exactly what it means. If the humira allows me to get off the steroids, that will be a big improvement. I have decreased the steroid dose but my hands are swelling up again so not sure if the humira is helping or if its just the steroids?
