If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

Contact the HealthWell Foundation online and fill our an application. They are wonderful people and so easy to work for. They paid all of my co-pay for the Remicade and then insisted that since I still had so much left in my grant that they are picking up the co-pay for the Humira (which now I am not going to get to take). Check them out. It is a wonderful program. They paid the dr. direct with the Remicade and now they pay my drug company diret so I never get a bill period. Hope this works for you. Blessings. Possi

Hello and good luck to you and your remicade treatment. I have both crohns and AS, diagnosed with crohns 8 months ago, and AS 3 years ago. I have been on the remicade for 8 months and it has helped me tremendously. I have only had one bout of strep throat, and other than that side effects are minimal. The worst of it is for about 2 days following the infusion, I get semi flu like symptoms, headaches and body aches, and extreme fatigue, but within a few days I'm back to nomal. I do try to stay physically fit as much as possible and I believe this has helped me in avoiding infections while being on the Remicade. Due to my AS I am currently taking the Remicade every 6 weeks as apposed to 8 weeks, and am feeling 80% better than when I was first diagnosed. Best of luck to you  , and be sure to get the TB test before starting treatment.
