Humira medication and avoiding sugars

Being that hs is an autoimmune disease I recently had a major flare up in part cause by myself and other issues. First , I kind of forgot to take the Humira injections , which I take on a weekly basis . Probably twice in three weeks I miss a dose .
Since I’ve also suffered from chronic cellulitis, also an autoimmune disease . Add on that I caught a case of bronchitis. My immunity system went to downfall . One little abscess on my foot , blew up into another painfulinfection . Furthermore, triggering major flareups in other areas. Consequently, I needed hospitalization for IV antibiotics for a week.
So if you don’t know about Humira, I suggest you find out because it’s been approved for HS and I haven’t had a flare up in seven years since I’ve been taking Humira.until now and like I said, I basically was the cause of it.

If you’re on you’re on Humira orany other biological medicine make it a point to not skip a dose .

Also I’ve learned from this forum the dietary triggers which I’ve can be accused of indulging myself.

I appreciate all the help and advice I get from this forum . I hope everyone else get some needed support as well .
