Any opinion on the effectiveness of remicade vs. enbrel or humira?
My doctor wants me to consider adding a biological to my treatment. I want to hear your experience.

Back Surgery?
Obviously on the
remicade
and prednisone I will be looking at a risk of infection and so on. I have heard mostly bad stories of people getting back surgery and bad recoveries and a desire wishing they never got it. Just curious.

PREDNISONE TAPERING
Do to a recent flare up after a
Remicade
treatment, roughly a week later, not because the
Remicade
. I had to increase my prednisone up to 32 mgs from 29 to where I was trying to drop it from 30mgs.

Newly Diagnosed with Neuro-Behcets
I recently was put on
Remicade
. We moved it to every 6 weeks though because I really am not finding it affective. I know this is a lot of different ends and questions in one, but could really appreciate any feedback. Its 330 am here and its because I have been so stressed.

..on a Happier Note...
Despite my kind of terrible afternoon at my
Remicade
infusion, I did get to finally see my rheumatologist after waiting over four months to get an appt. with him. Luckily his clinic is in the same building as the
Remicade
clinic, so I got to hobble over with my i.v. pole to see him.

Need to Vent!
I am so incredibly exhausted right now and my pain is spiralling out of control :( I had my
Remicade
Infusion today and literally took everything that was left inside me (which wasn't much)-- after a long crash all evening in my bed, I have woken up to feel even worse and now I feel ulcers deep inside

I have Behcet's and bone cancer. The cancer has put a stop to my Behcet's treatment. Any advise to help control bd when you have cancer?.
One of my doctors said its ok to restart the
remicade
infusions but every other doctor says its not safe. Have any one of you been dealing with any type of cancer with your Behcet's and if so what has been your treatment to keep the Behcet's under control.

I.V. steroid injections? Anyone?
He kept telling me
Remicade
is the best option for Behcet's and to just be patient.. but I think an entire year at the max. dose with no response is being patient enough. I've had it with this stupid disease..

Remicade, Imuran, Colchicine
I will start
Remicade
soon and my doctor plans to stop my Imuran and colchicine about the same time. However, I have heard that some Behcet's patients have remained on their immunosuppresants while using the
Remicade
.

High LDH and Behcet's?
I had this scare already last summer when my LDH had doubled within two weeks, so there was fear about Lyphoma because of the immunosuppressants and
Remicade
treatments I am on.

Insurance denied Infliximab - $28k bill
I recently had to stop taking Humira and start taking
Remicade

Remicade
is IV infusion, only. When I went for my first infusion, I found out my hemoglobin was 5, so they had to start IV iron before I could start

Response to Sue about severe headaches
The next step up is often drugs that treat your Behcet's inflammation systemically, such as the biologics Enbrel,
Remicade
, Humira, and that whole family of TNF inhibitors. More aggressive treatments would include immunosuppressants and chemo drugs.

My Behcet's headaches - "Atypical migraines"
I suffered from these for years and was treated with migraine medicines, high dose prednisone, Enbrel,
Remicade
, methotrexate, Cellcept, Imuran, you name it. Caffeine, either via coffee or caffeine pills, are also helpful to shrink swollen brain blood vessels.

Becoming informed about Behcet's
In 2010, I spoke at the Behcet's Patient Conference in London about the dangers of fungal infections for patients taking biologics (anti-TNF a drugs like Enbrel,
Remicade
, Humira, Cimzia, etc.).
