Remicade: Day 1078

It's been a rough couple of weeks between me and my Crohn's so it was a welcome relief when infusion day comes along.
Last night I awoke to pain on my right flank and anyone that's had it knows, it was a kidney stone.  I had my wife take me to ER and for the second time in as many weeks, there was no one waiting and I got in right away.  They hooked me up with an IV and was putting in pain meds before the nurse came by to take my blood.  And right after that, they started pumping in water.  I went through 2 bags in an hour and was out of the ER in about 3 hours.  The pain was lingering but it was more of an ache than a pain, so that made me happy!  A little while later and it was all gone.  Not sure if I passed it or not, but for now...no pain makes me a happy boy.
