My Remicade infusion story. This drug saved me. |

This episode, the second in my Crohn's disease web series, is an overview of my experience with the drug Remicade/Infliximab. I hope the videos in this series can be informative to others who are seeking information about Crohn's and the treatments I've tried. There is no reason to be worried about starting Remicade infusions and I will lay out exactly what you can expect. Be prepared, I tell it like it is, so these videos will go into detail about the "butt stuff." Apologies in advance for the amount of ‘ums’ and ‘uhs’ in this vid. Working on it in the future.
I have additional videos planned for this series but likely will add to that as this journey continues. Expect videos on the surgeries I've had, my experience with colonoscopies, MRIs, going to battle with insurance over Remicade infusions, and my experiences with immunosuppressants and other treatments.
