infliximab infusions

[Sillysausage2]

hello everyone, I’ve posted a few times before - had proctitis but now ulcerative colitis. I had my first infusion a week ago and lastnight I had a really slight sore throat and now abit of a stuffy nose. I’m not sure if it’s as cold or rhinitis - What do the ibd nurses normally say to do? As I was told to mention anything to them but it’s a Sunday not sure they are open. Thanks for any advice x

my daughter has had 7 infusion and she suffers with sore throats every 2 weeks where she loses her voice. She gargles with colloidal silver which always makes it better. From what I have read you should up your vitamin D 3 plus k2, vitamin c and test your B12. You are possibly deficient in b12. Hope this helps.

Hiya, thank you for getting back to me. That’s really useful.
