Hi all,
My daughter was diagnosed with Crohn's last year. Dr.'s have tried different medications but she is allergic to everything so far. On Thursday she is starting on Remicade. I have read about it and it scared me no end. I want her to get a second opinion but this is her second or third opinion. She has accepted that she needs to take this medicine I however have become totally depressed to the point of having to take anti depressants. I am trying to keep calm for her sake but its hard for a mother to see her child unwell even if they are an adult. I guess I need to hear that there are people using this medication and that they are OK ...
