Scared to start Cimzia

I have had Crohns for 27 yrs and had 3 bowel resections, now my Dr. is starting me on Cimzia June 17 and I am scared to death! I have researched it a little bit and there are so many side effects...anyone have any opinions???

You have to keep in mind that the scary side effects are rare. Try not to sike your self up to much. You have a greater chance of something bad happening while leaving Crohn's untreated than you do by treating it with the meds.
