Hi..
My name is Conor and I'm 14.. I was diagnosed with Crohn's on April 4th, 2007 after having a colonoscopy.. My GI first put me on Asacol, which we later discontinued due to side effects.. I was then put on prednisone until we could find a drug that would work. I then changed GI's to a pediatric GI. He put me on 6-MP which worked for a while, until I got pancreatitis from it. Then, I started methotrexate and was finally able to get off the prednisone.. But, I got hepatitis from the methotrexate.... Yesterday (10/19, I got my first Remicade infusion.. I'm hoping it works :)
 
Hi Conor,

Welcome to the forum! Sounds like you have had a tough time of it. I am on remicade also and it is helping me. Fingers crossed for you!

Keep posting. We will always listen.
