I've never been able to get away without using Prednisone to end a flare... I dont mean to be pessimistic, and I did try, but in the end I broke down and took the gd steroids. My hat is off to you,...
Hey all. Havent posted here in a while. Im wondering if anyone here whos on Remicade has had nausea problems after being on it for about 8-9 months. yay nay? Any other side effects I should know...
Wow, what an overwhelmingly positive response....
Keep a food journal, its probably one of the best things you can do for yourself. You'll learn over time what your body responds well to and what it has a hard time with. The more you learn/know, the...
Works. Really, I've been on it for a few months not, and I'm surprised to say that its been going really well. I feel kind of tired and weird the day of the infusion, but other than that, it seems to...

I apologize for that comment. It was pretty bitchy. I didnt mean to imply that people here are lazy. I like this community a lot and I'm sorry if I offended anyone. I've been pissy all day. I think...
