I have cd in my throat,mouth, tongue, I'm on remicade, the first thing I noticed with the rem, was that my swallowing improved, I've been complaining since 2005 about
swallowing and choking on certain foods, fast forward 2010, mu gi guy said yeas cd can be in throat etc. but he scoped me twice this year and no sign of anything in my throat, so he said maybe go to ent(ear,nose,throat) never did flare went down a bit in my throat, he asked me if I went and i said because whats he going to see when there were no visable leasions, so now 1st infusion of rem came and then I could swallow easier, so when i saw last tues. I told him what effect rem had on my throat, and that convinced him it was indeed cd in my throat etc. the rem didn't have huge impact on my small bowel, I stopped pred on my own. (hate that crap) I wanted to tell if rem was working, so without pred i could tell. of all the med's I believe for me pred was the hardest, I couldn't take that jittery, and slowing down my bowel's is the worst. for me I feel if I have stuff to get rid of, meaning bile, mucos, I need to get it out of my gut, I hope this helps, there are quite a few of us with mouth issues, someone will be along that have had thrush issues, they can help, sorry about
long post, it seems I apoligize a lot for long post
