My husband has been on remicade since Sept, 2008. He started having what we thought were mini-strokes and had a major one on May 25th, Memorial Day. He was given a clot buster because all along we thought he was having a stroke. After have a specialist examine him, we learned he did not have a stroke but is having seizures and it is medicine related. We are not sure if it is the remicade of some other medicine he is taking for his Crohns. His doctor and another doctor told us they had not heard of Remicade causing seizures but it is listed as one of the side effects - has anyone every had this side effect or know anyone that has - this scared us beyond belief. His doctor is contacting the makers of Remicade but who knows if they will respond. Please let me know!!
