Hi Nicole. I've been on Humira for over a year now and I just had my exam and I was approved by my Dermatologist and my Insurance Company to continue with Humira. In the last year being on Humira, I have had 2 flares this year and 2 flares last year when I first started Humira. The flares are very mild with little pain and swelling and the boils disappear quick. There is no odor at all and not much drainage. I recommend Humira to whoever can take it because it reduces your pain and suffering from HS. It will give you your life back.

Yes for about 5 months. Hard to tell but now that I am taking 80mg instead of 40 I think has made the difference.
