A good day

[BLM]

Today I followed up with GI after my week long stay in the hospital for the 5th time this year!! He is a new GI to my case, Ive bounced between three GI's this year and finally feel like I might be getting somewhere. As of now they are presuming CD and taking an agressive step to get the disease to go into remission. I am begining to taper off of 40 mg of Prednisone and will have anther Remicade treatement next Monday. I will taper 10mg off pred and maybe put back on Entocort depending on how things go. Today, is the first day in over a year where I feel ALIVE!! For the first time in many years, Im out of pain....any fatique and exhaustion isnt running my life. I live for days like today, and even though Im wipped out now....I dont want this day to end. I feel like Ive been ZAPPED!! I feel like my immune system has finally turned off and my body isnt attacking itself. As scared as I was to do Remicade, I really believe that this is going to be my saving grace!! I will keep everyone posted, I wish we could all have days like Ive had today~
Thanks for all your continued support friends!

Remicade was amazing for me a long time ago when I first got sick! I hope you continue to feel great!

Good days are great!! I'm so happy for you.
Remicade is turning out to be my saving grace, also.
I'm due for my 4th infusion on the 10th, and the last 2 weeks I have been getting better everyday.
I hope you have the same.
