This is really hard to answer because everyone is different. I think for the most part, prednisone is the only drug that has pretty universal side effects. All the other drugs, each person here...
Most likely not still a cold but after effects of some sort. You should go to your PCP and get checked letting him know you will need to be starting remicade soon. I have started antibiotics the day...
I take a Super B complex with my first meal of the day, and a B12 and folic acid a bit later, along with C. My Vit D is a once a week strength pill. They seem to help but I have to admit I was...
Good for you! /community/emoticons/smilewinkgrin.gif ...
Mine were for "livingwithcrohns.com" or something like that. The were shown all across the US, even my dad called me to tell me about seeing it on TV. I wish the others you are talking about were...
I was getting the idea that the Living With CD commercials for the website might have had something new or helpful, but it turned out to be a kind of survey about your condition and then finding a...
Dawg!!! Dawg is dealing with this now. Sorry you are having to deal with this....
High furctose corn syrup is what I meant, but couldn't think of it when typing. /community/emoticons/smilewinkgrin.gif ...
I know I kinda slid into remission without realizing how good I was actually feeling (although I may still have a rough day) until I FELL out of remission. I never realized how bad my insides were...
Double check the ingredients of the jelly beans themselves. Sometimes I find things that surprise me that do cause problems, like MSG, although I seriously doubt there is any in candy. Maybe the...
I personally don't have to deal with this condition, but I know from recent discussions several members here due. I am sure they will check in soon. That really stinks for a kid so young. Well it...
I would have been that blunt! /community/emoticons/tongue.gif /community/emoticons/smilewinkgrin.gif ...
Yeah, my last outing to Laughlin a couple years ago was seriously delayed before I felt comfortable enough to start driving that distance....
I would NOT under that set of circumstances, myself anyways....
I see Dr. Khosla, he is indian, if it matters to you. He has been pretty good to me. But to give you all the facts my wife did not care for him, for no particular reason and went and found her own...
Well the fissure was pronounced healed and one of the major hemmie banded internally this past week. He did it right in the office when she asked about it. So back to that question, how long does it...
I am only on 50mg a day to keep the risks down I guess. But the cold chills and muscle tremor in the left did not start until I started the pills. NOthing bad, just curious about the time coincidence...
And don't forget that the coating on the pills are red maybe causing the discoloration??? At least my lialda pills were....dark red that is. It was so long ago that I took that I don't remember any...
Or 2...Has any one taking imuran noticed a change in your tolerance to temperatures? I get so cold so easily these days that I sometimes get the violent shivers. I have lost some weight and can still...
NOt to worry you, but it took me 9 months to start getting relief. We had to find the right balance of meds, when to take them to go along with the remicade. Because of the osteopenia I am taking...
East Valley has offices in Chandler and Gilbert. I use the one on Dobson in Chandler. I live betwen QC and Florence. Probably not the closest, but they saw me the fastest back when.... They only do...
Got it and got it. Didn't mean to seem to question, but the vicks idea took me by surprise. What ever made you try it?...
I almost always get a bit of bone pain up to 14 days after an infusion. I take some tylenol and chill for a bit if able. Never lasts more than a day for me. Also found a hot shower helps....
Thanks all. They are hemmie as stated by 2 different doctors. Vicks?!?!?!? Doesn't it burn? I will have to pass along these suggestions...
WOW! /community/emoticons/shocked.gif What was the reason given for the termination? If they cited your health I would think that could open doors for you there, lawsuit, or towards you disability...
Bumped cuz I hadn't found another post on this matter. Is Sniper doing OK?...
I take mine with my first meals of the day. Generally the fatigue of this DD has me sleep pretty well. I need at least 6-7 hours to function. So no nightmares, no problems sleeping, but it would...
This really isn't for me, thankfully. I have a family member (wife, shh, don't tell her) with pretty severe hemmies, and recently discovered fissure with them. Has anyone had surgery/banding for...
I use East Valley Gastro, they have offices in Chandler and Gilbert. I see Dr. Khosla, (pronounced coleslaw) I will watch for a reply to see if you want/need the number. I live outside of Queen Creek....
Well I took my first dose this morning going to bed, just as I was dozing off, I got this bed spin feeling, forced it away and went to sleep. Feel like crap today, although if I was getting sick it...
Thank you all so much! keep 'em coming....
The only reason I am answering is that I just got my first script for this and it has warnings all over it that it will effect a fetus and is translated through breast milk. It sounds like a definite...
I know there was a similar thread not long ago, but I didn't find it. Soooo, a short lived remission is over. (fit all the colorful metaphors and expletives you know or can think of in here to have a...
Um, yeah, just a wee bit /community/emoticons/rolleyes.gif Hang in there!...
I know my memory issues pre-date the remi. or so I have been told /community/emoticons/tongue.gif ...
so that would seem to prove my theory wal-mart is clearing out their supply of the Ento, which they were probably stocking just for me anyways I am guessing. Thanks. That also means I can't comment...
All of my tests were inconclusive or showed nothing for my crohn's. The pill cam was the proof that was needed. My GI had told me the blood test only showed CD in about 30% of the people that have it....
Well Grin, You Go GIRL! To have that attitude about anything is a good thing. Personally, I hate this DD and the problems it has caused. The fact that you can find a way to spin it to a positive is a...
And how are you today Mr. Sniper? Doing better I hope. Haven't been on much lately and was shocked to see this....
Roni, all I can say to your previous comment is ooooooooooooo, bad! hahahahaha...
I would love to offer an answer, but I have to ask a question first. Do your generics say "entocort" on the capsules? My generics do, which makes me suspect the pharmacy is unloading the brand name...
Cottonelle All the way!! That Angel soft really isn't and it comes apart way too easy. Charmin just gives off too much dust. /community/emoticons/smilewinkgrin.gif ...
Yeah, what Ivy said!...
I am on 50,000 weekly due to extremely low levels. I will be on it for a year if that helps answer that question. ( I have other issues I need the "Vit D" help for. Las blood check I was not over 30...
When is the book coming out?...
I know, me personally, that my sugar cravings have gone through the roof. Not the kind that can be controlled by will power, I mean I need it, I gotta have it, I WILL have it. I voiced this concern...
AccessOne is assisting my Remi I am given to understand. You may also be eligible for RemiStart to help you out. Talk with the GI as I am sure they have all that info. I myself am singing the praises...
So far I am fine, although I started the ento back at a reduced dosage, just to help me through some stressful times....I could feel things changing inside due to the stress. That was one of the...
Waiter.....I'll have what he's having! Congrats to you!...
You may want to ask about a DEXA (bone density) scan to make sure you have no bone loss to worry about. I have been having hip joint problems throughout. using the ento and the remi doesn't seem to...
