I have lurked on this site for a while and you guys dont know how much you have educated me. I have a serious problem that I hope posters out there may have encountered . I have had mild to moderate Crohns for 15 years and been througth all the drugs. Last year I decided to put my fears aside aftera hospital stay and at the urging of my doctor and try Remicade. I started in August 09 and weaned off predisone. Now for 2 months Remicade infusions last only two weeks. My Crohns flare ups have gone from moderate to severe. I suffer extreme weight loss in a short period of time.
Should I start prednisone again? Even though I detest it. It is very effective My doctor is away and I plan to talk to him when he returns about Humira.Thanks
