Can anyone recommend a doctor in the Atlanta, Ga area, or resources that will help me read patient reviews. This is like forming life-long relationship... I prefer someone with onsite infusion...
Extremely helpful! Thank you. I really hate leaving her, so I hope being direct will address my concerns....
Also, if I may add how wonderful it is to be able to share and read other experiences on this board. I'm sitting here in self-pity mode because I'm hurting, and just knowing that others can empathize...
I've been seeing my doc since being diagnosed. I have been extremely happy with her. In fact, it was through her insistence that I stuck with the Remicade. After six infusions, I'm satisfied with the...
Well, this is my fourth week after Remicade. I thought I was going to feel like a new person. Admittedly, after eight or nine days, I did notice a change, but oddly after the second one I'm back to...

Thank you everyone. I have only been diagnosed since Jan 2007, so this is all very new to me. I think the reality of being on meds for the rest of my life is daunting and then being told you're...
I've read postings, but I would really appreciate a quick "what to expect" from my first infusion of Remicade. I know some people haven't experienced any side effects, but I'd love insight into some...
