I have had 5 Remicade IV's. I have severe Psoriasis as shown on my photo of one leg. I have had no side affects that I can pinpoint. I now have a resp infection and sinus and cough it scares me that it may be Remicade. I would hate it my legs are completely clear. I was depressed before and would not go out in public. What do any of you think. It could just be a cold.

I have had 5 treatments of Remicade and no side affects yet. But I seen the ad on TV and it scared me so I have been reading all this stuff everyone as sent in. I have a cough, runny nose, eyes matter, and sometimes shortness of breath. Can anyone tell me what they think. I take it for Psoriasis and it has completely healed. I felt like a freak before. I really want to keep taking it.

May name is Ana and I want to add a little more to the information I provided you all back in december. After December I had more infussions, I noticed that each time I had an infussion; I kept feeling worse side effects during and the day after the procedure. The doctor added steroids and benadryl to knock me out during the infussion, but even then I felt the chest pain and the head aches the day after. Finally the doctor decided that remicade wasn't for me, but I had to give him a scare; an even bigger one. 3 weeks ago I had my very last infussion. I went in 1 week earlier because I was in alot of pain (previous treatment didn't work) and I had been for 5 weeks, but now I could barely move. The nurse placed benadryl in my IV and it knocked me out, about 30 minutes into the infussion; I started getting chest pain and remember I was asleep. I tried to tell someone, but I could barely talk. The nurse noticed me turning red and shook me; asking if I was ok. I tried to tell her, I couldn't breathe; but I was struggling with the benadryl. I finally began to cough and it woke me up a bit, I then kind of told her that I had chest pain. She immediately stopped the infussion, called the doctor, got oxygen and helped me sit up. I was still fighting the benadryl. Finally the doctor came in and said, remove the IV; this isn't working for her. As soon as the nurse removed the IV, I couldn't stop shaking and I was getting a rash. I was kind of scared, but I tried my best to stay calm. But then I began to feel very cold and they noticed a tear in my eye. The nurse then asked why I was shaking and I told her I didn't know, but that I was very cold. Then one nurse took my blood pressure and noticed that it was sky rocket high. One nurse ran to get hot packs, blankets and pillows and she began to shove the hot packs under my clothes and cover me up; while the other nurse ran to get doctors again. Finally the doctors noticed that I was shaking off the chair and even though I tried to stay still I couldn't. One doctor said for the nurse to get a shot of something, I was too sleepy I can't remember the name of it (drug). It did help and it calmed me down and put me back to sleep. It was scary and until now, I still have a very sharp pain in the back of my neck that comes and goes. But I just want to think that it'll go away soon. So I finally got on Enbral and it works wonders with me and I feel no side effects (yet atleast).
