Infliximab loading dose #3 went smoothly and the next one will be in ~8 weeks. Not the same as when I was on prednisone but better than before the treatments!

Sending positive thoughts to the people affected in the fires over in the Los Angeles area.

Infliximab loading dose 2. Fingers crossed I’ll feel normal like how prednisone had me feeling the past 4 weeks.

FrogPilot running on Comma 3X has been great. This is what AI should be leveraged for - not for creating creepy artwork and ads

Drove to New York and back with this system and, though expensive at $1K, I highly recommend it to anyone who has a car that supports it

I also had my first biologic treatment a little over a week ago with infliximab/inflectra. With insurance, $500/treatment but supposedly reduced to $50/treatment with assistance from the drug manufacturer. Fingers crossed this helps me feel better

Here we are with the bill - I was expecting $3K so this is not as bad

Had a friend say there’s no Cinnabon outside the US.

Exhibit A: Hakata Station (Fukuoka)

Had an endoscopy & colonoscopy (12/2023 & 11/2024).

12/2023 GI thought mild Crohn’s.

New GI’s thoughts are that I have ulcerative colitis (Mayo level 2?)

Finally got an appointment with the ERCP doc after paperwork delays. Let’s see what the third GI says 😂

Here goes my out of pocket max

Provider’s office said I need to do a Fibroscan. Results came back good thankfully
