when you go to buy toilet paper the shelves are empty b/c it is on sale.. and this scares you,so you go to another store and buy so much of it you cannot carry home.b/c you can never have enough of in the house

Later, you laugh about it, b/c only a person with Crohn's would get it. :-)

BitBit, I never have less that 48 rolls of toilet paper in my house!  LOL  I now have an ileostomy because of Crohn's but old habits die hard!  tongue

Roni, Hilarious, are we all crazy or just funny? Not sure, but love the laughs.

you know you are a crohnie when: when you see a pair of underwear with a skull & crossbones on the front and think to yourself if they werent thongs and that was on the back you would buy them especially since they were a dark color............you have a rubermaid 3 drawer set with your meds, including ones you are not on currently but you may need it again i.e. Pred, Cipro, Entocort.........your spouse now refers to you passing gas as colon blow (if he only knew)....you now get internet on your cell and have a full keyboard so you can take the net to any couch, hospital, or restrooms......you have tried beano to help even against foods not listed with no help :(.......your spouse puts the fan on even when not needed for temp, but to fan away gas odor faster.......you have a scale close bby and use it often if not daily

You know you are a Crohnie when:

Your skidmarks should be listed in Guinness Book of World Records!

You get Envious of someone with a bad case of the Flu..

You donate your body to science.. but you are still ALIVE!

Matthew
I actually thought I had used them up, but like CD I keep on giving!

You know you're a crohnie when 50% of your office is home sick with the flu, and around lunchtime it hits you that you probably have the flu too. But you decide to stay because you are used to running to the bathroom every 10 minutes.

:)

ok - these are seriously great and make me feel... NORMAL??? can't be!  But if ya'll are having the same issues, then I can't be terribly abnormal!

I have not eaten so that I could attend parent teacher conferences w/out embarresment

my children know NOT to use my bathroom

I have now learned to get some tp (i really hate public tp) and get a bigger purse to carry some fresh drawers w/me.  I already carry matches, but... nice ideas... thanks!

and really - these are so funny cause it makes me feel like maybe I"m not a freak who hates to have to wait till the person in the stall next to me flushes so I can let loose cause I know that I WILL make a noise as I am going poopie and I'm hoping for their flush to drown out the noise.

good stuff!

You know you are a crohnnie if:

You would never say I have a "stomach ache," but are more likely to say "my right lower quadrant is hurting," or "my inflamed ileum is giving me trouble!"
Posted 5/14/2008 9:13 PM (GMT 0)
You know you are a Crohnie when:

All this stuff makes sense to you..

You have programmed your GPS routes around the best reststops & closest restrooms!

You get jealous of someone drinking a milkshake!

You have wondered if Barium swallows could have flavor added..

Matthew
Posted 5/15/2008 5:25 AM (GMT 0)
Actually Matthew, the last time I had to drink barium, it was lemon flavored..either that or floor polish flavored, hard to tell...

You know you are a Crohnie when:

You used to like jello... but will never again eat it unless you are prepping for a test. Yuck!!!!
Posted 5/15/2008 12:07 PM (GMT 0)
OMG, you guys are sooo funny but its all true....have a great day...i am gonna try.. kelly

Hi Snipe When you look in the mirror when on pred to see if your actually growing a pig's tail.

When a gorilla's butt looks better then your own.

When you sit around wandering whose body is this ?

When your wandering where your eyelashes have gone and it takes 10 minutes in the morning just to recogonise yourself.

Gotta love us. lol gail

Gachrons, Sometimes wish I had the old vampire trait of ,,no reflection in the mirror. Also you
Sit around wondering what you are sitting around wondering about.
You actually use products like Boudreaux's butt cream and monkey butt cream.
The rain drops plopping on the top of your head tell you there is nothing much up there to stop them anymore.
You wish there where such a thing as a full body transplant. (but)
You also need a brain transplant.
You wonder if eating the pictures of food would agree with you more than the food.
Speaking of transplants, do you know why a womans brain for transplant is creaper than a mans brain ????
The womans brain is used.....

     You know you are a Crohnie when:

       You get amnesia... Oh, I forgot what I was talking about.

       James be careful, that might indeed be lemon scented Pine Sol! nono

These are all really good, I like re-reading the thread when I need a laugh XD

You may have crohn's if you know where every health item is located in every store you shop at, and know what every obscure item and pill does!

You may have crohn's if you are on medications the nurse can't pronounce.

You may have crohn's if your other doctors read your chart and ask "what the heck does that mean?".

You may have crohn's if you have developed a secret code word to tell friends when you suddenly need to hang up the phone to run to the bathroom.                                                                                   [CHUCK NORRIS CHUCK NORRIS!!!  -disconnect-]

ROFL! Maplady! Thanks for the new code word. Oh my gosh, I'm gonna laugh about this one all day!
Posted 5/16/2008 10:18 PM (GMT 0)
eyes You know you are a Crohnie when you see the word "diarhhoea" and immediately think, 'That should be "diarrhoea" '.....and you're dyslexic yeah
When you think of the gut diagrams they gave you to learn in biology at school confused...and it's easier to remember where things are by thinking of how your own gut acts.
And last but not least, when you have a medical benefits review examination where you discuss with the doctor exactly how incontinent you are (and no we are not talking European holidays here eyes )...and at the end of the examination he calls you back into his office to shake your hand and say very sincerely, " I just wanted to say, best of luck !"
yeah Yes, true, it happened to me !

Hey Sno, long time no see! Where you been hiding yourself Hare?

You know you have Crohn's when:

Your organ donor card reads EXPIRED!

You watch Revenge of the Sith on DVD & relate to Darth Vader when the mask comes down at the end of the flick!

You have an encyclopedic knowledge of over 10 thousand medications & side effects!

You can One up anyone in a childish gross out competition!

One for movie buffs,,
You may be a crohnie if you would rather,, narful the Garthok than go to the bathroom again...Hint, its a conehead thing..OK VV how do you spell Garthok ??????
Posted 5/17/2008 5:54 AM (GMT 0)
(in a high pitched monotone) "on the planet remulak, we do not trouble ourselves with the random positioning of chemical shapes on paper."

maybe you should check with Upgrayedd for the correct spelling.

vv

oh yeah, i thought it was klingons hanging around uranus.
