I've had a very stressful Christmas. Visiting son totaled my car. Spent days (2 straight) using bad posture on my couch with my laptop to find another car and started having back pain. Used an...
No other meds, btw. Really want to know if this means the Remicade is ineffective. We tried everything else....
Thanks everyone for the responses. We are not going forward with a Mayo appt., it would be a last resort to see a surgeon as she is so young. We got a call yesterday that the remicade level is at a 1...
I am, as a mom of a daughter with UC for 5 years, at the end of my rope (and its not even my pain!) Nothing has worked but Remicade and she is not living a full life. Infusions every 6 weeks and no...

Yes she's a pediatric gi and we've not been unhappy with her style or reaction time but no real results and her on-call colleague said my daughter could have Motrin, when we called w pain, but the dr...
Worried, not getting anywhere. She's becoming attached to steroids and taking ibuprofen, just feels like the wrong route. Considering a dr. For adults vs pediatric. What do y'all think?...
Thanks so much everyone, this forum has really helped. She is on day 3 of no bleeding, first time in 3 months! Now she can walk down the football field this weekend in the homecoming court! Last week...
Well the first med gave her migraines so we had no choice. The dr did wonder aloud if it might be related to coming off steroids. The second time we were just reporting in that there was still pain...
