Vancouver,
Thanks for the update! Glad to hear that things seem to be going well for the most part! Have you thought of checking out the remicade subforum under treatments? I'm thinking there might be some good info and help for you in there and you might also be able to talk to those going through the same things you are. Take care :)

Glad your beginning to feel better. If your going to continue to get Remicade treatments it may be beneficial to get a port that way you don't have to worry about your veins taking too much damage in the process

I'm sorry things are still tough but I'm glad you are learning to cope. This disease sucks but you learn to live with it over time. I hope your sister doesnt have it too.

I know she was supposed to meet with a doctor to see what they thought it due to all the snow she hasn't gotten to I feel bad but at
Least she wouldn't feel as bad as I did cause she knows she isn't alone

It is hard to stay positive when you are constantly tired.I can sleep the night through and wake up exhausted.I hope you continue to benefit from your treatments.Maybe you'll be able to sleep better.
