Remicade Reviews

Show: for
Remicade put me into remission, .& is the reason I'm in remission right now. It's a miracle, if it hadn't worked I would have had to have the surgery by now. I've had 4 initial infusions so far
So far so good, a little nervous currently due to some pains in my colon recently. not due for another infusion for 5 weeks.
On it, 3 infusions so far. Some hair loss. Some gut irritation.
Working / Worked
Worked, but orencia works better
Didn't deal well with the side-effects--migraine-like headaches, more arthritis, etc
seems to be working favorably
Not working yet, but we're doubling the dosage.
Working / Worked
Had my 3rd treatment on 10-5-09 and today (2 days later) I am almost completely pain free
have had two injections so far, seems to be working,
Working / Worked
This worked greatly until I developed an allergy to it and had 3 bad allergic reactions during infusion.
