Remicade Coverage

Hi there,

Holy Cow~! We just found out how much Remicade costs and are so thankful that we have 100% coverage. What happens if you lose your job and don't have coverage for a while? Has anyone run into this?

I understand that if you stop Remicade, your body develops antibodies and you can't use it again. That would really limit the treatment options, and maybe force surgery...

But we'd have to re-mortgage our house just to have one year of medication, and I'm in my 30's! Seems scary to start unless they don't "cut off" the meds. if you can't pay. Any thoughts? Any experiences?

Thanks; hope you're having the best day you can!
