Hi Verona (nice town, I was there once, a long time ago).
Do you mind if I ask what your symptoms are, besides constipation, and where your Crohn's is located? Has surgery ever been discussed?
As for meds, you could try Stelara, which is an newer drug than Entyvio but has been approved to treat Crohn's. It also has a different mechanism of action to the anti-TNFs (Remicade, Humira) and Entyvio, so it could work where so far nothing else has.
Incidentally constipation is a more common symptom than you might. There are loads of people on this board who have suffered from it, including me. What's more rare is never having diarrhoea, but symptoms can change over time and yours might be doing that now, what with the recent diarrhoea. A sudden change of symptoms that isn't explained by a temporary infection, or whatever, usually merits getting checked out.
