What Are The Side Effects Remicade?
I am on remicade and I have joint pain, extremely tired all the time and I get some very bad infections. I am getting weaker and weaker. My labs are normal I have to be per medicated because I am allergic to remicade. Have I developped anti bodies? Is there a test they can do to see if the medication is working against me rather than for me. Thx
