I have behcets disease w/cns involvement. iam only on colchicine which hasn't helped. my drs are afraid to treat me. what should i be on?

See details: It is impossible to know what med would work best without knowing all of your specifics. Remicade (infliximab) is one agent that I have found to be very helpful for this disease.
