Hi, i m a 40 year old male, about 7 years ago i was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis and about 5 years ago i was put on humira. in the mean time, I keep having weird symptoms that i associate with the ulcerative colitis flare ups but my doctor says he doesn t think so. what happens is i start having pain at the back of my neck where my head meets my neck, when i yawn my diaphragm spasms(twitches), and i feel a little lightheaded. I get hot flashes and what feels like an adrenalin rush. when i fall asleep my dreams are usually crazy weird and when i wake up my heart starts racing and feel like i might pass out. this last part usually last about 5 to 10 minutes then sort of subsides. these symptoms will get worse and worse then i will get my doctor to give me prednisone to get things under control. the reason why i try to link this with my flare ups is i usually have diarrhea and cramping at this point. my doctors can t seem to give me any answers as to what these symptoms are caused by. the only thing that makes these symptoms go away is taking prednisone. Please point me in the right direction or maybe what this could possibly be.

Summarized question: Should I take humira for ulcerative colitis?
