Jan Vilcek is my hero and role model. Really nice guy too. Would never know how much he's worth by talking to him.

Sorry to hear about both of your experiences. It's a nasty disease but luckily there are some excellent treatments available these days.

Dude, lol. As someone who prides himself as a knowledgeable person and doctor, you have nothing else to say than "yeah it sucks but good thing there's stuff out there to help" and namedrop???

Or did Inept really sum everything you would have said and more?

Anyway, that aside...I don't have any real information about but know a good friend that suffers from Crohn's. He got hospitalized couple of times for surgery over the past two years (had to remove parts of his intestines!) but it looks like he's got it under control now - he uses some sort of self-injected medication. Is that how Remicade is administered?
