Stelara

I haven't been posting for a while, but I still read the board from time to time. Work has been so busy and I am finding it hard to keep up.

I felt like I wanted to let all of you know that I got approval and will be starting Stelara tomorrow for my Crohn's. It's off-label, but I've failed all other Crohn's meds. Two years on Cimzia and my C-RP (range 0-10) is 49.7. I'm so so so excited to try something new. It's showing good results for the trials.

My syringe is delivered tomorrow! I'll let you know how it works, if anyone is interested.

Have you considered Low Dose Naltrexone? It' a mild medicine with litterary no side effects. Both adults and children are getting reduced inflammation on LDN, and many people at the yahoo group LDN and IBD is using this medication with milder Crohns meds with great success. LDN is a low cost medicine, price: 15 - 20 $ a month. // Bee
