I had a mild flare about 2 1/2 years ago and was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis. Was on Lialda. Had an allergic reaction. Had many mild flares while on this medication. Was then put on steroids. After a few months of steroids, was not on any medication.
This year in January I had a severe flare up. I was out of work for almost a month and couldn’t leave the couch. I dropped about 15 pounds (I am 5’4″ and weigh 125 normally) So needless to say I looked awful and felt even worse. started a round of steroids followed by Humira.
I have been on Humira for about three months. I feel great, but now I am loosing my hair. Have a doctors appointment on Friday. Has anyone else experienced this side effect? Will my hair grow back?

All of the posts from “Annonymous UC” are from ulcerative colitis people who anonymously submitted stories or Doctor Reviews, medication, supplement reviews etc… I post all these stories to the site, but they’re different from my own personal stories so hopefully this account makes more sense:) -Adam – founder of iHaveUC.com
