Wish me luck!

Tomorrow morning will be first try on a new treatment for my knees (Remicade).

Now, the good thing is that if it works, I should be able to live a painless life (surgery is still a go to fix the damage to the bones).

The down side is that it might not work at all and even worse there can be some pretty serious side effects to the drug.

So, wish me luck!

Good luck mate, and if it does work be sure to take as many precautions as you can to prevent yourself getting infections and the like because of the immunosuppressant side of Infliximab.

I've gotten shots against pretty much anything in the past few weeks, so if it isn't anything exotic, I should be ok.

Haha, that just reminded me of one of the things Mr. Wang says in Shadow Warrior.

Good luck, and yea keep an eye out for side effects. Also try to lessen the beer-intake if you're on strong meds.
