Heya, no this is not the protocol for Remicade infusions. Double check with your dr/nurse, iron infusions are done when the iron level is really low. Have you had labs done recently?

Let us know what you find out.

I have had one or two iron infusions in the past due to low iron levels (but not linked with having Remicade).
