Crohn's & Cimzia
I was diagnosed with Crohn's at a very young age, but now, I am 20 and it seems like my Crohn's has taken a backseat to my medications. I see many specialists who say I am too immunosuppressed due to Cimzia, but obviously my gastro has me on it for a reason. I've been doing Cimzia injections since 2009. In the past month, my eyes have been extremely inflamed, causing 2 eye infections. I had surgery for hidradenitis suppurativa. And over the past few months I have been experiencing a debilitating pain in my right arm/wrist. Some days I can't even use my arm. It's a pain I can't even describe, because most of my other pain has been in my insides. My late father had Crohn's and has a history with several blood clots. And my mother's side of the family has a lot of history with RA.
Has anyone else experienced crazy side effects due to the medication? What could this thing with my arm be?
