Can Humira Be Taken For Ulcerative Colitis?
62,210#, male w UC. Increased bleeding over last 3 years. Flair once in awhile but feel strong with very little other symptoms and good stool. Dr wants to put me on Humira. Are the risks of untreated UC higher than the risks of Humira? The drug scares me.
