Wow it's a toughie...
Hey guys, I'm a mid 30s asian male with Crohn's currently on lialda and entocort. They want to take me off entocort as I've been on it for like 5 years and replace with 6mp. I read all these horror...
Here is a bad follow up: The drainage stopped because the outside finally healed up. I'd be happy but again, the abscess reformed due to the premature healing and it opened itself up after a couple...
So I had a perianal abscess, boo :( The doctor decided to cut and drain it and then she laid it open to clean the abscess out. It didn't develop into a fistula yet, but I went to get surgery anyway...
What is the site supposed to look like? It seems pretty deep (1inch?) and still stuff coming out like a picture of blood and other light stuff. When I look at it in the mirror, one side has a...
I had a perianal abscess, they drained it. And then a week later, decided just to remove it. Went in there, cleared the infection out, and cut deeper and laid it open a little. The dr didn't find a...
Hi, so I am on entocort and pentasa and colestipol, all long term so far. Now and then, maybe once every three months or so I have maroon stools. My doctor usually freaks out about it, but it's...
thanks so much for you response seems like it has lactose in it, but it's very interesting...i think i'm lactose intolerant too lol.... for the most part, i bleed sometimes in my lower intestines...
Hi! Do any of you have any suggestions for alternative medicine? Couple questions 1) I looked into Omega 3s and the web says it doesn't help. Any others or should I still take them? 2) Probiotics...
I dont' know if I'm paranoid or not, but I'm always scared that I re-damaged or re-tore my labrum. It's only been 2 weeks after surgery and it still hurts but not in severe pain where I need my pain...
thanks! i'm seeing him tomorrow cuz of a follow up anyway!! thx again!...
Had a labrum surgery and was walking down the street 5 hours later....someone hit me from behind (yea i know, rude) and it hurt (well of course cuz i just had the surgery) should i be afraid that it...
Thanks for the heads up. I think might do isopure cuz it has the least amount of stuff in it (it's pure protein). I just scared of using Glutamine because people say there are studies that show it...
Hi, I want to gain weight and get bigger. BUt I have a sensitive stomach like all of you. I found this great one, but then noticed that it has really high fiber, so that's out of the question. Here's...
So I don't know what to expect from Crohn's. Seems like reading the message board everyone needs surgery, or is severely ill. Now I know that might be because people usually only posts when they are...
going to the doctor's for the followup after biopsy etc. Please wish me good look and pray for me :) thanks all and I hope all is well with you....
i wonder if this research will in turn create something usable...
Why do we know so little about Crohn's? I mean we still don't know if it's bacteria or anything. A lot of theories, but it suprises me that no body really cares on the scientific side except for some...
Seems like everytime I go to the doctor it's either the status quo or bad news..never good news or getting better. is this always the case?...
remember the restrictions on the amount of liquid you can carry on the plane...
could be a hemmoroid, but seriously see a GI soon..usually crohn's bleeding is darker purple as it is in the upper digestive track..but still, if there is sever bleeding, it could be from the...
I press down on my stomach and it is tender, kind of hurts a little. If it is a blockage, how should it feel to me? If it is a abcess/fitula, how would that feel? I dont know if I got food poisoned...
