Guest guest Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 Hello, My rheumatologist has decided to add Remicade to the medicines I take for RA. My first infusion will be Monday. The nurse who scheduled it said I won't feel any different or have any side effects after the infusion and can drive myself home without a problem. I am just wondering how others have felt after the infusions and how long it took to start helping with the pain and stiffness. Thanks in St. Louis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with your.. and Take something to read It takes about 2-3 hrs to run the IV. Janet IN IL > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
