I have a second opinion doctor appt this Thursday and am taking pentasa and entocort since last Tuesday as I am newly diagnosed with terminal ileum crohns. I keep hearing great things about
the remicade but wondering how long can one stay on this drug without building antibodies since it is also made of mouse protein? Is it just for active inflammation and then you go off of it. I can't find this info anywhere. My stomach is hurting so bad and I want a solution to this nightmare. I understand it is life long but right now I would love some relief!! Wondering if remicade is the answer.
Thanks!!
