I've been trying to do just that since my first hospitalization. There's just so much to know about and remember. Medicine, diet, side effects. Remicade seems to be working so far, but as with every...
It's exhausting having this....
Back right after college I has using the charity care clinic at a hospital near my home. The care there was excellent. In fact, I was diagnosed there and recently selected that same doctor under my...
Any ideas on what happens after Remicade? I mean, say I've been on it for five or so years and it's still working. Do you think doctors would consider pulling me off and seeing how it goes? What are...

I just started too, and it seems to be working. I've only had one dose, and I still have some of the same symptons I went in with. This stuff apparantely wears off, so it may be that you're ready for...
