I'm asking on behalf of a family member (65F) who has Crohn's disease for over 15 years.

About 10 years ago, she had surgery to remove intestinal blockages and with pentasa tablets, she's been doing fairly well since then until last week, when her symptoms returned.

She also had a recent hernia repair with mesh placement. Because of the mesh, her doctors feel that another abdominal surgery may not be the best option right now and have recommended starting Remicade instead.

I'm trying to better understand whether Remicade is generally considered a good option in this situation, especially for someone her age who has previously required surgery for strictures. Has anyone had a similar experience, either personally or with a family member? Is age a factor for how effective the medication is or it's side effects? I'd really appreciate hearing about your experiences, including how effective it was and any side effects or concerns we should discuss with the doctors.

Feel free to mention more than one, but do mention what you loved the most and where - What's your favorite FIFA display?

I always wanted to do a higher level cert when the current ones are up for activation but just realized it's expiring in 2 weeks.I do not want to attempt professional level cert with a lack of preparation so that's out of question.

Is it possible to recertify SAA C03 with a preparation of just 2 weeks given that I have already passed it in the past? Want to make sure I keep the cert active. Any tips or focus areas for study are welcome. Thanks in advance

I have never sincerely solved leetcode because I never had the need/enthusiasm to do it and honestly never switched jobs in over a decade. I worked at a consulting company and though the pay wasn't great I got to work with some major giants and I'm technically strong so managed to clear all client interviews. They didn't usually involve leetcoding. I want to switch companies now and realised I cannot do it unless I grind leetcode. Please tell me your success stories/how you started if you didn't have the discipline in the beginning. I am a real good programmer but I just don't know where to start. I have tried for a week in the past but though I solve it, solution answers seemed far better and I forget them in a week.
