Relief is on the way...I hope

After stubbornly hanging on to the hope that the Imuran would begin working better again, I told my GI doc that I would let her change to whatever she thought best because clearly the Imuran is no longer controlling the intestinal inflammation. Less than 2 weeks later, I had been prescribed Remicade and it was approved. I qualified for the RemiStart program and the infusion center will work with me on payments. I have the first infusion on Tuesday. I did have a reaction to the last Remicade infusion several years ago so pray everything goes okay. I know it works fast on my joints. I hope it works just as quickly on the crohn's. It's been so long since I felt well, I don't really remember when.
