Sorry for your situation I have Ileitis with lower bowel thickening, on Remicade
once every 6- weeks the most they will prescribe.
Sounds like possible Anemia, of course I am not a Dr so have your blood checked for low Iron and Platlet count.
Also I have a Pain specialist who has switched me over time, to Subutex prescribed for pain. It doesn’t really kill the pain but has little side affects. It to can constipate which in my situation is a problem with the wall thickening especially during a “flair up”
I am anemic and get “Winded” very easily. Over the counter Iron may work, but for me it increased my constipation.
Also with Chrones we have a difficulty absorbing enzymes etc. by mouth
At least in my case. So I just started Iron
Infusions. I believe this might be the best
arena for me.
Unfortunately I know good insurance is
important.
