{sigh}

I had my first Remicade infusion on August 22nd.  Beginning the past Monday, I noticed muscle aches and a soreness starting to creep in.  Today, I feel like a very large person used a rolling pin on my arms while I was sleeping.  My joints ache and I keep getting these random shots of pain all over my body.  My arms and legs also feel heavier.  I don't think this is normal - I hope this is not normal.  I'm waiting for my doctor to call me back today to get an answer.  My dilemma is that I need to knock out the ulcers in my small intestines quickly.  In six weeks, I'll know if the Remicade is working.  If that's the case, there might be enough reduction of the inflammation that another dose of hookworms would take.  However, if I'm having this full-body pain only a week after an infusion, does this mean my body has already rejected the Remicade?
