Hi everyone.

I have been on Remicade for 8 years…it has been wonderful, took me from the depths of crohns back to somewhat normal health.

Recently i have had a sore elbow, but i havent banged it on anything. I had a 'bursa' and had it x-rayed, but now several months later it almost feels like the bone is inflamed….it isnt hugely sore, but i am aware of it and it looks different to my other happy elbow.

Has anyone else experienced this?

LIke most people with crohns, the last thing i want to do is go to ask a GP and all that, get another X-ray…..but i am interested in if anyone else has had this and what lifecycle it took on? Did it go away? Did you stop taking Remicade.

I dont feel as well as i did a year ago…i dont think the remicade does much for me these days and wondering if i should just go drug free for a while or start on Humira.

We NEED A CURE!!!
sick of feeling fatigued and good one day, **** the next.

thanks everyone.
