I have had a bad flare-up of Crohn's with severe inflamation of 80% of the colon. For the past six weeks I am being treated with prednisone [40 mg daily>with littlle progress. A week ago the GI suggested Remicade infusion starting in a few days. However there now appears to be progress such that I wonder if I should start the Remicade treatment and if so can I discontinue the the infusions after once or twice. Or should I cancel the start and continue with the predisnone until remission.View Thread
