Guest guest Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 I am on Remicade but sure get the ebie geebies when you talk about it. I know though that it has helped the deterioration of my joints since I was on it. I wouldn't go off it unless something else came along that promised as much. No it doesn't help my aches all the time but when my joints were xrayed 2 years ago there was damage starting from the RA...now the damage has stayed the same and I only think that is because of the Remicade. Any medication is a risk for side effects but I am willing to make this risk and from all the studies I have read the side effects are minimal and you are under a doctors care at all times. You have to be blood tested every 8 weeks to monitor changes and even the slightest change to liver counts are dealt with.
