Hello everyone. So i am on Humira right now and I have been experiancing pain after i eat and about 4 or 5 trips to the restroom through out the day... I am also on entocort and my dr really wants to take me off it because its not that great long term, but problem is the Humira alone wont keep me in this shape. So he wants me to maybe try Remi next week... but this past fri i had a difficult tooth extraction that has left me unable to eat solids and with the pain meds has left me constipated.. so my question is=, is constipation normal? should i ask my dr to wait, or is this the best i will be...?

Pinky , I think you need to talk to your doctor about this before you start remicade . I get asked questions like, " have you had any resent surgeries ? " , before any remicade infusion so I am not sure they will give it to you after the oral extraction.

I believe it has to be 10 after the Remi to have dental work done. Would it be fair to assume then that you can get Remi 10 days after the dental work is done?
