Hi everyone,
I had my first infliximab (remsima) infusion yesterday. I have proctitis which has not responded to any other treatment.
I felt mostly OK during the infusion, a little flushed at one point and just generally drained towards the end. In the afternoon I felt kind of dizzy and weak, much better after a nap! Today I woke up with a sore throat which has progressed to feeling like the start of a cold. No temperature. I've let my ibd team know as that's what it says to do in my booklet! But I haven't heard back.
Are these normal symptoms? Or am I just super unlucky to get a cold right at the same time?
Thanks!
