Hi

My names Matt, Ok so i was diagnosed with Crohns disease 2 years ago this December will be 3 years. I was freshman year in high school when i started to get the symptoms like stomach pains, diarrhea, etc. I lost way too much weight, I was 110 when i was diagnosed and now I'm in the 150's where I should be. I used to be bullied and made fun of when i went through all the pain. I'm on Remicade to keep it under control and doing very well! It's been a long tough road for me, after all that I've been through i feel like it made me a better and stronger person.:)

Hey Loveless -
Welcome to the forum! I am starting Remicade November 10th. I hope it keeps working for you. We are stronger for having this - you're right.
