Oligometastisis consultation
He had an infusion of
Remicade
(usually used to treat Crohn's Disease) last week to try to get his gut healed up. He's had 3 days without GI distress for the first time in 3 months, so hopefully this is helping. Going to try stepping down from 60-40 mg prednisone to see if he can tolerate that.

For Remicade/Infliximab Patient’s...
I receive
Remicade
/Infliximab infusions for Psoriatic Arthritis and Psoriatic Spondylitis. I was wondering how often everyone receives their infusions, how long the effects last (before your pain noticeably resurfaces) and what the side effects are that you get and how long they last.

Remicade
Has anyone tried
Remicade
? Does it help better than other treatments? Are there side-effects? I’ve been on Humira and Methotrexate for psoriatic arthritis and, secondarily, BD, but the Methotrexate has possibly done some damage to my lungs and now I am on oxygen.

I need help
I was supposed to go on
remicade
but then this stuff popped up. I am in a deep depression cause maybe I won’t be able to be on any medication. I also have diabetes type 2. Not a good scenario. I am afraid I won’t be able to function in a year. Hands swelled and right wrist and elbow for now.

DMARDs and weight gain
Remicade
stopped working last summer, and was bounced around trying to find another that worked. Simponi did, but my gosh, the weight gain! Even with working out like a fiend and being on a very strict ant inflammation diet/Paleo . My rheumatologist says biologics don't cause weight gain 😒😣!

I’d like to introduce myself
Next we tried
Remicade
. That gave me drug induced Lupus. Next I was put on Actemra. Bingo! Relief! Only it dramatically lowered my white count. But it really really worked , I was put on Nuprogen injections to bring up the white count....except, the Nuprogen caused a 3 day flare.

Added Sulphasalazine
Unfortunately the
Remicade
infusions alone are not working optimally. So we are trying adding Sulpha with the
Remicade
. On
Remicade
I am having breakthrough Crohns flares and it’s not controlling my RA either. Hoping it doesn’t give too many side effects.

Plaquenil and RA
I have also taken Enbrel, Humira,
Remicade
, Simponi, Methotrexate, and currently on Xeljanz. Each one acted differently. I believe the plaquenil was the most helpful but it really gave me GI troubles.

Crohns and RA.
I was taking
Remicade
. It worked ok for Crohns but two weeks before next infusion it wear off. I just had an infusion the other day and it’s not working at all for my RA. All my symptoms are comming back. I’m obviously going to see my doctor, but wonder what other biologics treat both diseases.

Rheumatoid Arthritis is there anyone that is treating it with natural treatments?
Currently taking
Remicade
and methotrexate, I do have some flareups and extreme fatigue with it but was told if inflamation numbers don't go down we are going to increase medication. I really would want to stop the medations for them being so strong and affecting my kidney and liver.

ANEMIA
Remicade
was discontinued after a year and a half and am now trying Stelera. The bowel symptoms are manageable however I am left with a cycle of debilitating anemia requiring iron infusions (venofer). My doctor feels that I may be the small majority that has this forever.

Remicade made things worse for anyone?
I just find it crazy that I had more days that I felt good before I started
Remicade
than I do now.

Help for au pair foreign girl suffering of Bechet coming to UK

Remicade
I have been doing
Remicade
for over 2 years and I have had no problems with it. The infusion of
remicade
last week that I got, I was sick the entire day. I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this. Thank you :), hope you are having a pain free day.
