Seems unusual that they did that. Your doc must want to jolt your system. How bad are your symptoms? If you are ok after your infusions but they wear off before your next infusion, the max frequency is every 4 weeks and the max dosage is 10 mg/kg. You may want to try that before moving to another medication.
Key question -- are you better than what you were when you started Remicade? If so, you may need to adjust dosage/frequency to get to remission. If not, then have the discussion about your options with your doc.
