"I have had two loading doses of Remicade. I think it is working, but it is too early to tell. After the second dose, I felt ill for a week with symptoms of exhaustion, headache, poor appetite, and metallic taste in my mouth."

"After my first infusion with Remicade, my IBS symptoms of diarrhea were lessened. But after my second infusion two weeks later, I experienced side effects that I had not experienced the first time. I felt exhausted, and my tinnitus was increased. My sense of taste and smell was diminished, and my appetite was poor."

"My first infusion of Remicade, I pretty much slept through it. I have recurring eye infections that prohibit cataract surgery. My GI doctor, after consulting with other doctors in the field, thinks this is the best med for my issue. Time will tell."
