Nothing I had tried with my doctor had worked, so now I am starting Remicade infusions. Hindsight is 20/20, I could have saved thousands if I had just started Remicade a couple years ago. I've spent a ton trying different medicines while being covered by poor health insurance and high premiums.
Remicade is pricey too, the 'bag' for the transfusion costs almost $1,000. Fortunately there is a rebate program called Remistart , check it out if you are having trouble keeping up with all these costs like me. They actually send you a Mastercard debit card that they charge up for you so you can pay the transfusion center.
My first transfusion went quite smoothly. The nurse recommended I take Claritin or the cheaper generic alternative Loratadine an hour before coming in. I ended up not getting itchy but that is good to know. There were basically no side effects worth mentioning. What a relief! I've seen some improvement already in my symptoms and it's only been a few days. A nice change from some of the other meds I have tried. I go back in 2 weeks, then 4 weeks after that for my 3rd transfusion. Then ideally I will be in remission!

I have Ulcerative Colitis; I was hospitalized for eleven days, had bloody diarrhea for weeks, and lost 30 lbs. Doctors put me on a very pricey perscription drug given by infusion, which worked to some extent, but had long term side effects that I was not comfortable with. I quit all of the prescription medications several years ago, and started on Anatabloc. Well, I was totally amazed!! Anatabloc works better than the prescription medications, without side effects! My inflammation is virtually gone, and I can eat foods I haven't been able to eat for years. My Ulcerative Colitis is under control and I feel better than I have in years. I also have TMJ (Bruxism), from grinding of the teeth, and I've had inflammed gums for over 20 years. Not any more, the inflammation is gone thanks to Anatabloc. It's been a miracle for me-
