Still trying hard to cope with my friend's loss. Last week, I took my 3rd Remicade infusion 1 day prior to my friend's passing away. Normally, when I took Remicade the 2 previous times I would have dizziness and fatigue for the 5 days following the infusion. This time I didn't suffer from any fatigue may be because I was busy with my friend's funeral and getting condolences that's why I didn't notice any side effects after the infusion. Since last Monday, I got nonstop d and pain in my lower right quadrant and again I attributed this is to my psychological state. But for the last couple of days, I have been getting severe muscle aches all over my body and need to sleep a lot. This reminds me of when I used to get a new flare up; I'm already in a flare up. Today, I spent the whole day either sleeping or in bed unable to do anything; my body aches. I have fatigue. My monthly B injection is due in 3 days but I have never suffered from such severe symptoms when a B injection was due. Could it again be my psychological state playing w my Crohn's?
