Tips on Getting An Infusion During the Pandemic

We're living through an usual time and people living with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis have many questions about how the pandemic may affect them. IBD experts agree that it's important to continue receiving medications during this time to avoid a flare-up. That might mean traveling to an infusion center, hospital, or doctor's office for treatment. Julie Kennedy of The Semicolon Girl recounts her experience in receiving her infusion of her Crohn's disease medication in the era of COVID-19, including how the procedure was different, and gives her tips on how to make the process go as smoothly as possible.

Find Julie Kennedy on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and on her web site, The Sick Adventures of a Semi Colon Girl. Read her blog post about her infusion, Adventures in Pandemics.
