Take a look at this virtual lecture (or read the transcript)...it is an educational teleconference/webcast presented by the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of America. I must say it is what helped me sort through all of the facts and emotions...hope it helps you as much as it has helped me...

Also pop over to our Remicade/Infliximab sub forum. There's lots of us including me who are on it and hopefully we can answer your questions and put your mind at rest
