Crohn's Disease, Maintenance
"I am 24 and I was diagnosed with Crohn&#039;s disease a year and a half ago now. I&#039;ve been receiving this infusion for the past 12 months. The relief was brilliant bar constantly catching coughs, colds and flu&#039;s but it was worth it as I could lead a normal life again. My infusions were every 8 weeks and could take anything up to 4 hours but my remission time between infusions began to steadily decrease. I have now had my 9th infusion and receive them every 5 weeks. My body has grown an immunity to the drug and my doctor is changing me onto Humira as a last resort to avoid surgery. Hope this helps somebody."
