I Have Ulcerative Colitis And My Doctor Put Me On

I have ulcerative colitis and my doctor put me on Lialda medication about 1 week ago. I have been taking Remicade treatments for 5 years. and now he wants to be taken off Remicade this year in 2016. Remicade has help me a lot. But my doctor wants me to take Lialda and the side effects are horrilble. What can I do to stop the side effects of Lialda. And stay off Remicade. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
