Hello All,
My 11 year old son was diagnosed about a year ago and takes Remicade and Methotrexate. He has hit a nice remission the last 3-4 months and has been rapidly gaining weight. This week he started complaining of a headache and sore throat, and had visible white patches when I looked at his throat. He was diagnosed with Strep and given amoxicillin to treat it. His GI said to skip his Methotrexate for the week. We are taking a probiotic with the antibiotic, but are still experiencing diarrhea. I would love to hear from some of you how it has gone with antibiotic since this is our first real illness since diagnosis. Thank you!
