I've been experiencing an on and off sore throat for about a month now, after taking humira for 7 months. My doc says my throat is bright red and has put my on antibiotics, but suggests that it might be a humira side effect and if so, there's nothing we can really do. I have no other symptoms of cold/flu. Has anyone else experiences this?

Have they done a throat culture? Can you delay the Humira a little with doctor approval to give your body a chance to fight it with the antibiotics?
