I finished the Prednisone. Yay. But I'm still having little flare ups, moderate pain. But I'm getting the "crohns bumps" some weird skin ulcers that I had the first time around.
So my GI is having me switch to Humira once a week, instead of every other week. I'm not too thrilled, but it could be worst.
Plus I love Kaiser. A month's worth of Humira (4 syringes) costs me $35. The regular price (without insurance, I guess) is $3660 for the same amount. Yikes. Also, the Humira is cheaper than Asacol was (at $55 a month).
For some reason, Kaiser switched from the Humira pens to the syringes. It's not much different, but it's a little more difficult. The pens are one and done. The syringes have a few steps. And they make me shakier. I'm not great with needles.
