So bizarre. Almost the exact same situation for me. I was on Remicade for about 5 years and 2 months ago it completely stopped working for me. No idea why either as I haven't formed anti-bodies to it. I started having bright red blood in the stool which went away with cipro and flagyl, but now...

A little background history... I started taking Remicade in 2007 to treat an abscess/fistulas and my Crohn's condition in general and it worked beautifully up until about four months ago. At that point I guess I was just having the "pre-quake" of what was about to come. I developed a little but...

Are you on a b12 supplement injection? That helped a lot with my depression? Sorry to hear you're still struggling.

I have been tracking this treatment option for a little over a year now. The results of the initial clinical trials seems VERY positive. How great would it be to have a "natural" treatment option for Crohn's? It looks like Coronado has pushed through an agreement with a couple of other players...

Thanks all. I read about taking anti-histamines on the forums, but I went ahead and tried first just drinking LOTS of water (thanks Astra), and I also made conscious effort to change my diet to a low residue diet. Thankfully these changes have worked. I still feel the rumblings of both the...
