UC and Allergies   Message List

My 14 year old son Zach has had a good symptom-free 7 months on
Remicade infusions.

Within the past few weeks he has appeared to have developed an
asthematic type allergy.

At the same time, his UC-related symptoms of mucusy stools and
difficulty holding it in have returned.

system caused by the allergens?
