Humira and Prednisone Loop

It’s important to remember that Covid tests (especially the home ones) can give false negative results, so your “cold” might be Covid in spite of the test. Is the mask you are wearing a well-fitted N95 mask? Do you *ever* take it off in the office (e.g. to drink water or eat)? Does it ever fall under your nose?

In any case, it’s more questionable than ever before (for good reason) to go to a shared space while you have cold symptoms, whether you have a positive Covid test or not. Covid symptoms in particular can take a very long time to clear up, and even if you aren’t infectious a wet cough will make you the least popular person in the office. Can you work remotely for a while?

I heard that about the at home Covid test. Mu son's friend bought 5 of them. He took one and it was positive. The next day he did another text and it was negative, so he did another and it was negative, Finally he went to a testing center and it was positive.

I don't have the option of working remotely and wear a mask from when I get out of the car until get back in it.

Am I correct that both Humira and Prednisone lower your immune system?

Thank You Bob

Yes they both definitely lower your immune system. Strange that the GI doctor would take you off the Humira and switch to prednisone - but what do I know, I'm not a doc haha.
