about 2yrs ago I started Remicade. Every 4 weeks (which worked for 2weeks then tapered off), ......now I am on Cimzia which i have been on for about 1yr. Recently we combined Imuran......my questions is this: How many have left Remicade then went back? Cimzia just does not seem to be doing the trick. My only other option is Humira.............???

any insight???

I was on Remicade for 2 years and I had to go off of it because of insurance. I'll be honest I couldn't tell a difference between taking it and not taking it. I am now on Imuran and allopurenol I had to have a right hemi colectomy and now in remission good luck to you :)

anybody else have any insight.......I guess my biggest questing is would you guys recomend going back on Remicade....?? With Remicade I could get 2 solid weeks of being symptom free, since I added the Imuran I was thinking it may be even better. Or just try Humira?? Like I said the Cimzia has never really done the trick for me.

Thanks for the advice!!
