Hey everyone, I was just prescribed Simlandi for my Crohn's disease. It's a bit scary starting a new medication, especially one that's injected. Has anyone else used this? I'm curious about the side effects and how it's worked for others. Also, any tips on managing the injections? Fingers crossed this helps!

I had some bad reactions at first. I got a rash and some swelling around the injection site. My doctor said it might just be my body adjusting, but it was pretty scary. Stick it out for a week, but if anything serious happens, definitely go to the doctor.

I was super nervous about the injections too, but it's not as bad as I thought. Just make sure to use a clean area and follow the instructions carefully. And don't skip any doses—consistency is key.

I've been on it for a while and haven't had any major issues. Just the usual injection site reactions, but nothing too bad. Make sure to give yourself enough time to rest after the injection. Feels like a bit of a shock to the system.

Did your doctor give you any specific instructions on how to store the medication? I'm a bit worried about forgetting to keep it refrigerated.

Oh, and don't forget about the mental side effects. I had some pretty bad anxiety for the first few weeks. Talk to your doctor if it gets too intense.

Good luck! I've heard mixed things about Simlandi. Some people love it, others not so much. Just keep track of any side effects and talk to your doctor regularly.

Remember, everyone's experience is different. What works for one person might not work for another. Just stay in close contact with your doctor and keep a log of how you're feeling. Good luck!

I've seen some scary stuff about liver issues. I'm not on this med but heard from someone who was. Just make sure to get bloodwork done regularly to catch anything early.
