    Great news Oscar! I don't really think reducing the dosage by 1 tablet will make any difference at all. But, it's a start!! Glad to see that you're nearly fully recovered and very happy for you!! Have a great 2025!

    Thanks for sharing mate, great to hear the positive news. I came off anti-inflammatories (NSAIDS) and painkillers (tramadol, codeine, you name it) when my Humira kicked in fully. Total life saver.

    Great news, however I suggest in your next video if you can show us your progress of the symptoms from before and now. ❤

    Great progress and so good to hear you're doing well now! I'm going to ask my rheumatologist if I can start taking humira when I see her next. After taking methotrexate for many years it's just not working any more😮 Sending cheers and happy new year from Oz 🦘

      Happy new year 🤗 I hope if you start the humira it works for you as well as it has for me!

    My personal advice would be to not completely come off mtx. Perhaps eventually with time taper it down to max 10mg/week. Last thing you want is for Humira to not work anymore prematurely. Adding mtx to Humira reduces immunogenicity, and prolonged co-medication is associated with long-term maintenance of adalimumab. Last thing you want right now, since you're in remission , is to go back to step one, and then try to find another biologic that will be effective. You want to be as long as possible on the same biologic. God bless you and I'm glad you are feeling great!

      Thank you so much for your comment and suggestion. Would you by any chance be able to link me any scientific literature in regards to this? I like to be as informed as possible. Many thanks 🙏

    Did you have any issue with liver enzymes? And after how long humira gave you the maximum?
    I am using it for 3 months and I am on 90% recover which is for me enough to be happy, but hearing you running and training hard I start to wonder should I complain and maybe other biologics would give me 100% relief. I can’t run for example

      I go into more detail about blood tests and liver enzymes in this video > th-cam.com/video/dORQHAREmVk/w-d-xo.html
      I can't comment on your recovery so far. I would think if you can't run then that doesn't represent you've had a 90% recovery? I noticed a clear difference after 1 month but everyone is different. Speak to your medical professional in that regards I would say. Stay well!
