I have Crohns and take Remicade. In the summer my colonoscopy was clear. I am having a 102 fever every day for over a month now. Besides being tired there are no other symptoms with the fever. I had my last infusion on Nov. 16th. Anyone experienced anything similar?

I have lost 15 pounds in December 157 - 142

I have been to the doctor three times with no luck. Did blood tests, stool sample, and chest and abdominal X-ray.

Thanks!
 
Have you had imaging done since colonoscopy only looks primarily at the large intestine and leaves. List of the small intestine not viewed.
Any joint issues?
Have you had an examine by your GI?
Seen infectious disease ?
Weight loss and fever is concerning
Are you still eating enough and the weight loss is unexplained?
 
During the summer of 2015, I started to have fevers that lasted over a month, lost a lot of weight, and was using the bathroom a lot. Because of the fever, I wasn't able to get my Remicade infusion. t was definitely going through a flare up and my doctor wasn't doing anything about it. I changed to a different doctor that immediately admitted me to the hospital. I stayed there for 2 weeks, and did SO many different tests. The cause wasn't very clear, but the CT scan showed a lot of inflammation. I ended up taking a break from the Remicade and went temporarily on steroids/Boost plus diet for 2 months.

Did you fever delay your Remicade treatment?
