Has anybody ever experienced hot flashes as a result of taking Remicade? I've had several in the last week after receiving my last infusion on April 29. I've never had any before and being an otherwise healthy young man I cannot think of anything other than Remicade being the culprit.

The only time I get hot flashes are when they use to give me steriods as premeds before my remicade! Do you get those as a premed if so that could be the cause!
