I was first on Predisone, but then changed to Remicade in the hospital. It worked like a miracle drug! I am still on it 4 years later and so is my brother. We have had no issues with it and still plan to be on it. Hope this helpsSmile

I have been on remicade for the past 6 or 7 years. First i took it in combination with immuran, but i stopped immuran 2 years ago. I never had any bad reactions to it. I'm happy to say that I haven't had any steriod treatment since i started it after my operation. I'm very tired after the treatment but it's worth it!

Good luck
