      Treatments

      Asacol Working / Worked
      i think it helped with bleeding. Not on it anymore
      Azathioprine Working / Worked
      off it now. my new gi specialist says that azathioprine does not have any effect if i am already on remicade.
      Prednisone Working / Worked
      worked awesome in the beginning then weened off it. got bad and tried goin back on it with little or no effect.
      Remicade Working / Worked
      has made me feel "normal" again, starting to lose it's effect after about a year. missed a dose in the summer by almost a month. bad move.
