Do you feel better right away, is it time released? Does it accumulate infusion after infusion. Please let me know. Thank you How does Remicade feel once you have had a few infusions.

Two years after an illeostomy I was admitted to the hospital with more severe Crohn's symptoms (this time, the lesions were ON my abdomen)---I was put on remicaid when it was newly approved for Crohn's. It has been my miracle. I receive treatment every six weeks and am now able to hold a job as well as care for my family. I cannot say enough good things about it. I don't seem to suffer any side-effects--but if I run late in getting in for the treatment, I do start to feel bad. I now take no other medication--at all. Two months ago, I went in for my remicaid treatment and my Dr. insisted on seeing me in an examination room as he had only seen me in the remicaid room for 2 years!!!! It was nice to see him and catch up on the happier points of our lives. I recommend Remicaid to anyone who is suffering. Remicaid changed my life!!!

Even though it lists side effects and whatnot, it smacks of pharma-co propaganda. This is pretty much a plug for Remicade.

She was hesitant to try either because of their serious side effects (i.e. cancer), but basically had no choice & chose Remicade. Unfortunately, for her, it did not help her at all as far as her pain went even after the 3 treatments. She then tried the 6MP for a little bit, but was at the point where she was in increasing pain daily, barely able to eat a meal a day and had to drop out of school. We went to the surgeon yesterday and she is scheduled for an Ileocolic Resection in a couple of weeks. The surgeon seems very optimistic so we are hoping for the best.
