Hi I am new to this forum and am just looking for some support and advice. I've had pretty severe Crohn's disease for about 8 yrs, and this time it's gotten very bad. I'm currently in my last semester of college, but now I'm facing being delayed a couple semesters because of the severity of my crohns. I have absolutely no energy, and am sleeping all day. Eating is very difficult because I am often nauseous and cannot fathom eating. Zofran does not work for me. I have percocet 5-325 for pain, but it's not helping at all anymore and I'm miserable. I should probably go to the hospital but I just wanted to finish my semester so bad, but I do realize I need to put my health first. I've lost a lot of weight and I know they would put in a PICC line like before which I hate, but at this point I don't have very many options. Surgery is most likely my next step. I've been on remicade for about 4 yrs and have tried all the pills and also methotrexate. Any input would be great! Thanks!
