So I had my colonoscopy Friday...not good...active inflammation in the lower colon..proctitis..GI took biospy and blood to see if I'm developing anti-bodies to Remicade, which I have been on for 6 years now. I am in my senior year of college which has been tough, I also work as a part-time bank teller 20-23hrs. Basically my schedule MWF is work 7:25AM-12PM then class 130-430PM and T/TH school and work from 9:30AM-6:30PM. On top of all this I have group projects and lots of hw. I think I have bit off more than I can chew, my mom is pushing me to quit work, as she doesn't want to see my in the hospital on megasteroids, but I feel like a quitter and bum that I'll have to live of my parents for even spending money now. However, I get bloody diarrhea at school and work and major urgency to the point I feel like I am going to have an accident. I am so frustrated, this is the part of my life that is supposed to be beginning but I feel like I have so much against me too. I feel like I have to tell work I can only work about 12hrs but not sure if they'll go for it. I feel like quitting so bad but don't want to be lazy. I'm going to try to go to my university wellness center for counseling. What should I do?
