I am doing a bit better, but still unable to take my remicade infusion. This is now my second cancellation not having my remi since end of October. My symptoms are slowly coming back so it is imperative to get my viral and bacterial infections done with. I am taking CIPRO at the moment.

I am still in remarkable pain with my legs, and I have been given a motorized chair. That helps a bit - but still doesn't afford me the pleasure of my old daily routine. I hope I can re-use my legs soon.

I will try to check in more now that I am feeling a bit better.

Love to all here

hey BOb - good to hear from you. sorry you aren't feeling well. are you piling on the probiotics while on cipro? I took it once for 10 days, and it was a bit rough at first (that was my old life, pre-UC) and the doc emphasized the need for probiotics while on cipro.

I hope you feel better soon. hang in there.

Hi Bob,

I took cipro during my flare and it really helped me out. Sorry to hear about your legs, I hope you will be up and around soon.

Wishing you a healthier new year!

Hey Bob...sad to hear you're still is such pain and that your UC symptoms are starting show up. I hope once the cipro course is over, you'll be able to have the Remi sooner than later.

It's good to hear you have a mobilised chair to help you get around.

Healing thoughts sent your way!
