Hello, just joined this forum...I'm on a couple of other IBD forums, but this one seems to be a little better...Meaning, more of the topics that refer to my condition...The other forums I'm a member of seem to be more along the lines of Crohns..I was just diagnosed in March of this year (28 years old) , and have just now achieved remission...The only medication that has worked for me has been a pretty high dose of Prednisone...As soon as I tapered to a lower dose, I started to flare again...Mainly blood, mucus, and frequency...Not really any diareaha, thank goodness!!! I'm taking remicade infusions right now...I had my first one Sept. 27th...I go for the second one Oct. 10th...So far so good, except I'm still am on Prednisone...Hopefully be coming off that soon...I guess I'll see if the remicade is working once I'm off the steroids...Any input from remciade experiences is appreciated...I'm still a little nervous about
that stuff!!! Anyway, I just thought I would join this forum as I saw several questions from people that I might be able to answer, or share my experiences with...Have a good day
