      I had my first, and so far only,flare at the end of August. Started on predisone, which didn't help, went to remicade. Have had 3 infusions so far. Recent slight irritation in gut, and hair loss.

      Treatments

      tied the GAPS for a couple of months right before my flare.
      Flagyl Not Working
      part of the first attack, didn't help.
      Prednisone Not Working
      Part of the first attack during my flare, did not work.
      Probiotics Not Working
      Part of the initial diet before the flare, may try again.
      Remicade Working / Worked
      On it, 3 infusions so far. Some hair loss. Some gut irritation.
      Remicade Working / Worked
      So far so good, a little nervous currently due to some pains in my colon recently. not due for another infusion for 5 weeks.
