Hi Luigi,
I didn't know if I told you the story then but apparently I did. I do very well on the remicade - zero inflammation - and could stop dieting alltogether if I wished but I'm so used to it that I really grow fat when I start eating starch now. So now I'm doing an bit more relaxed low starch diet. Nevertheless I gained so much kilo's that I couldn't do my yearly half marathon as I got a bit of a knee injury. Other side effect of the remicade is that my skin is a lot dryer and easy irritated and even scaly at some point. But with some ointments I got this now under control to the point that I don't need them anymore. Furthermore I am treated now in a different part of the hospital were they are knowledgable about using the needles. Since that time they put the needles in in one go without pain or blue spots. So I'm no longer known as "Gerard the living pin cushion".
I was thinking that maybe other people would like to try the spa's at Jachymov too. You could let us know when you go to the Czech's and maybe some others could try it too at the same time so there would be some more communication possible.
Take care and let us know how it goes,
Gerard
