whats up guys ......i just got done with my first infusion of Remy....everything went well. it took 3 hours total and no side effects...i met some super cool people in the "injection room" and got tons of advice and shared some info...unfortunatly i spoke with the doc and was diagnosed with crohns so i will no longer be here in the UC site...but will always be checking and reading posts since these diseases are so similiar. Thanks to all that responded to my posts in here and hope the best for you all.....

To be honest I wish my doctor had fast-tracked me. I had 5 years of a flare before I was hospitalised and put on a combination of Imuran and Pred. It changed my life! I lost most of my twenties to UC instead of kicking its ass with Imuran. Apart from picking up minor infections more frequently I have no issue with Imuran. As my doctor said, she couldn't believe I had accepted that quality of life for so long.
