I was on remicade for 2 months and contracted pneumonia. It kept getting worse for 8 weeks until I had to go hospital. None of the antibiotics were working. I almost was dead and they considered a heart and lung transplant and I was on a respirator in a coma. Finally somebody figured out I had eosinophilic pneumonia and treated it with cortisone. I began to improve but was still in hospital 4 months and after almost 2 years I'm still on oxygen and can't walk right. Many people develop this and die without a diagnosis. I won't take remicade ever again.
