"I'm 17. I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis only 3 weeks ago, I've been in and out of hospital twice. I went back in because the oral steroid medication wasn't working. They told me about infliximab and said its a different type of medication to treat Ulcerative Colitis. I had my first infusion the night before I came out of hospital. The next day they discharged me. It's been 2 weeks now and all my symptoms have gone completely! I couldn't believe how well it worked. I was quite lucky to be given it due to the fact they usually don't give it too people under the age of 18. They want to try me on another medication because its so expensive. I will persuade my doctor to continue me on it. Thankfully I live in the UK so it's free for me!"

Remicade (infliximab) "My skin peeled. All over my whole body. After two weeks, I had a flare-up. At the present, I’m watching what I eat to see what foods may have caused it. I was on mesalamine but the doctor didn't refill my prescription after I got the infusion. I really can't say whether it helped or not."

Remicade (infliximab) "I've been on Remicade for 4 years for UC. I am in complete remission... It's unfortunate that it's an IV infusion, but I will gladly deal with this versus the effects of Ulcerative Colitis."
