Welcome to the forum! Like others have said I would like to hear your story as well when you're comfortable. If you ever feel like you are alone with complications or wonder if others have had the same experiences, you can guarantee there will be atleast 10 people on here who have experienced the same, and many more that understand what you're going through. Crohns can be a tough disease sometimes but forums like this are very helpful in making the best out of such a crappy (pun intended) disease.

Hope to see you around the forums :)

How are you feeling now? Did the Remicade help you at all? Is the Imuran better?
 
i'm feeling better, yes it did help and so is the Imuran. but i've been feeling nausious for a couple of days, is it because of the medication or the foods i've been eating??

it could be either, in all honesty. You can ask your doctor for an anti-nausea medicine like Zolfran. It helps me a lot when I am feeling nauseous
