Fever : Your immune system gets suppressed with Humira (adalimumab). Low grade fever suggests concerns for a infection. You need to see your MD get a good history and physical and discuss your temp record. Cause of fever needs to be found. Test based on symptoms may be needed. And yes CRP and ESR can be done but they are non specific. Have your MD find cause of fever.
