Delay on starting Remicade

[Guest guest]

I have a sinus infection, and so starting Remicade is delayed for

another week. I will have been off my Enbrel almost 7 weeks by then, I

am in sheer HELL inflammation-wise... at this point who cares about

pain, the swelling & fluid in each joint is making me doubly

miserable. Oh, and I had to delay a root canal because of the sinus

infection. Nice.

This is NOT a good time of year to do this.... I don't know why I

agreed to switch meds right before Christmas!!! Oh right, it was

because the Enbrel wasn't working too well...and I was supposed to be

started on the Remicade LAST week before I got sick <again>.

Did I mention I have 2 kids under 10 who need me to pull off a major

holiday???? <sigh>
