= MUCUS? (gross, sorry)

i am looking for others that deal with both of these ugly diseases. my UC is obviously very connected to the MS. when i flare with UC it gets much harder for me to walk, fatigue is increased, etc. i am not here to vent though, i am here to see if there are any MS'ers here and what they do to beat down their UC when the prednisone isn't doing it. my gastro says its time to try Remicade. however, i have seen this www.rheumatology.org/public/factsheets/biologics.asp which says that Remicade should not be used by patients with MS. any of you have experience with this?

are there other drugs that are as effective in beating down UC flares as Remicade? anyone get infusions with other drugs?

???
