I was recently diagnosed with Crohn's disease and have been struggling ever since. I have tried and not been responsive to Pentasa and Entocort, leaving me now on a very high dose of Prednisone and 6mp. In less than a month, I will know whether the 6mp will work for me. The doctors and I are not very hopeful. My next alternative is obviously, Remicade. I am scared with the short life of the drug as well as some not so great side effect, ie, cancer, blood disorders, lupus... I really want to hear peoples experiences good and bad to make an informed decision. Also, if anyone has taken a holistic approach and it working.
I am very grateful anyones experience.
