I took Cimzia for a couple of years. I'm on
Humira now, but to address your skin cancer concerns, I always use sun screen when I'm outdoors for any length of time and have yearly dermatology checks.
I had some of that
peripheral neuropathy while I was on Cimzia and it went away once I stopped taking it.
Never once had an adverse reaction but the drug just stopped working for me so I had to move on.
I've bee on three biologics over the course of about 12 years now. Like many, I have to weigh the benefits over the risks. I looked up short bowel syndrome and it didn't sound appealing, so I take my shots.
I hope it goes well for you.
