I'm kinda in the same situation as you are. My UC is being quite the pain in the ass and my doctors say Remicade isn't working for me in the long term, that as soon as I drop down to 20/30 mg of...
ipoop, thx for the link! Let's hope I'm one of those that get into remission. I'm starting to see my options disappear....
