Remicade did wonders for me, my Crohn's disease went into remission. Still have muscle pain over a year after not taking it. Maybe that is from the Imuran. When I had my infusions I had to have Prednisone before & during because of an allergic reaction.

I have been on Remicade for a year and a half and have done very well with the Crohns. I started out with both Imuran and Remicade- I can tell you that for me the joint pain came from the Imuran- It was so bad I could hardly get up some days. I had to go off Imuran since my white blood cell count dropped dangerously low. Ever since (a year now) I have been on just remicade and that has been ssoooo much better. Just tired a few days after infusion (maybe from the Salumedrol they give me first).
