intro and remicade question

[Guest guest]

hello all!

I've been lurking for a few weeks now.... I'm Beth and I've had RA

for 15 years. I've been on Enbrel for the past 4 years, and now,

this week, I will be starting Remicade. I've been struggling w/ a

very bad case of scleritis and living on major doses of prednisone...

and my opthamalogist says that remicade seems to have a pretty good

track record in dealing w/ the eye problems. So, I'm going to give

it a try.

My questions are: What side effects have you experienced? How long

does it take to " kick in " ?

Thanks for your help and shared wisdom!

Now, back to lurking

Beth
