Catzmommy - Sorry to hear your daughter is taking prednisone. It's hard enough for an adult to deal with the side effects. :(

Airamluc - Good evening, I've been using remicade for 3 months now and have been through 4 infusions. My UC has gone into remission somewhat but Remicade doesn't seem to be the answer either. I too have tried all but one of the prescriptions you listed and nothing worked or provided as much relief as the Remicade has but now I suffer from the side effects of Remicade. I have severe body aches for about a week after and other flu-like symptoms. My infusions are 8 weeks apart and by week 4 I start feeling crappy again so all in all I only feel good for about 3 weeks of every 8. I'm sitting here in tears trying to decide whether I want to continue with this so called "treatment" which doesn't seem to be the answer either. I'm at a loss for words. I wish you and your daughter the best of luck.

Kins - Please do not settle for giving your daughter such a dangerous drug as Remicade until you research the mounting evidence and trials that are going on using long-term antibiotics to treat this disease. Even WebMD is now reporting that some in the medical community suspect that bacteria is the cause.
