I have had the flu so bad since christmas eve......I now have this lingering pain in my upper and lower back...kind of a weird feeling

and hurts to touch the skin....is this from the flu or side effect from remicade...

Thanks

I had the flu a few years ago - that's what made me an avid flu vaccine proponent. I remember that when I had the flu, even my skin hurt. Just rubbing my hands over my arms would make my arms hurt. That was just my experience from having the flu. I don't have crohn's and I do not take Remicade.

I think if it is manageable, get over the flu first, and see if those symptoms still linger. If they do, then, you probably need to investigate further.

I hope you feel better soon!
