I’ve been on remicade for almost a year: prior to that I was on Humira for 1.5 years. Remicade has been a game changer. I still get small flares and the other symptoms. Occasionally I’ll get a big one, but not constantly. Since starting it, I’ve been able to zero in on the prodromal symptoms.

Or it's opposite effect like me where I had an antiflaxis reaction. The other is aInterleukin Inhibitors, like cocentyx. This is all lab created but doesn't use any outside d n a influence. What I have found is it is much more tolerable and longer lasting. I would suggest trying a different class of biologic
