Hello Donna!
I'm sorry to hear that you are suffering with the joint pain. Most of us sure know what you are going through.
Sorry, I can't tell you how Remicade works if you miss an infusion since I haven't been on that medication but I have missed 1 and 2 infusions with the biologics Orencia and Actemra.
I did miss 1 infusion with Orencia and my Rheumy said it wouldn't matter. But I missed 2 infusions with the Actemra because of 2 infections in a row, so he said that we'd just have to start over and not count the first infusion that I had already had. Sorry if this sounds confusing. I just thought these situations were similar to yours with the biologics. Maybe someone else here has had your experience with missing 1 infusion of Remicade.
You could also call your Rheumy and ask if it would be okay to miss one infusion. He may be okay with it also to see if it makes a difference in pain. After all we are taking these drugs to feel better not worse.
Sending good vibes to you for much less pain. Be well!
