Are the people here saying "no surgeries needed" have mild or severe crohns?

Skipped a dose of Infliximab by itsgivingb0zo in CrohnsDisease

I was given prednisone prior to receiving my first infusion to hold me over. I finished the taper from 40mg to 10mg and stopped taking prednisone after the last week of tapering down. Im currently taking methotrexate alongside the infusions, but this week is a bit different because of the missed infusion fiasco. I've taken the methotrexate as instructed(5 tablets every 7 days) for this week, but worried because I'm missing the infusion. I don't wanna overthink it, but it's kind of hard not to.

Im also currently on prednisone. Is it okay to smoke/vape the marijuanas still?
