Starting Vedo next week

[immunedisaster]

Hi! I am 61 year old female with 20+ year history of UC & CD. Initially dx with UC & treated for several years with meds until 2 years ago my annual Colonoscopy was positive for both small/large bowel Crohns. Been thru Dipentum/Pentasa/Asacol/Azulfidine/Lialda/Apriso/Rowasa~You name it! Of course, many rounds of Prednisone (Ugg!) Then on to Biologics following a 3 1/2 year flare~Reaction to 1st dose of Remicade~Humira x2 years: remission started after 3-4 doses & remain in remission but had to stop in August due to causing high bp, frequent UTI's, severe Scalp Psoriasis & fatigue almost continuously. Next week is my 1st loading dose of Vedo! I pray this will be the one to keep me in remission with no/minimal side effects & no reaction! This is my first try @ Support Groups, although I have read thru several over the last year or so. Looking forward to sharing with "Crohnees"!
