Thanks for the responses. I did call the people at cimplicity, spoke to a nurse there, and they have never heard of this problem. It's probably just sore from the shots, was the conclusion. Next time...
I hope someone can help me on this one. I had my second dose of Cimzia on Sat. I was a little tired and didn't feel so hot, but that is kinda normal anyway. But, On Mon. My legs started to hurt, it...
Yes, thats the study. I figure even if it doesn't work for me, any research done for crohns is a good thing. My son, who is only 23, was just diagnosed with it. So, just maybe there will be something...
I haven't been on in a while, so I'm sorry if this has been discussed before. Has anyone heard of this study or have any experience with it? I just signed up to be part of the study. It won't start...
I asked my Dr. today for pain meds. and she said to try muscle relaxers instead, and see if that helps the pain. Has anyone ever done this for CD pain? I never had this happen before, new PCP, and...
I was diagnosed almost 10 years ago, have never been in remission. Even after 2 resections. Nothing seems to work for me, I have tried it all. Now my sister, her flares last til she gets a quick dose...
Thanks for the responses. I'm actually glad its really inflamation. I don't want another surgery. Well I started the Pred. today, 40mg., for 2 weeks when I see the Dr. again. Then he'll decide what...
I had a colonoscopy last week, showed active CD. The Dr. told me today that the biopsy showed it was inflamation. Does anyone know if a biopsy can really show weather or not it is inflamation. I'd...
These ideas are all great......especially love the pain dupllicator........would love to have several of those! That would end the "you look ok"....
Thank you for the response. My sister gets nothing from me but my caring. I wish i could do more. I'm in Florida and she is in NC. She gets whatever help she can there, she just needs me to talk to,...
Thank You, you brought tears to my eyes. Which is very hard to do. Everything you said makes so much sense. I'm sure you are right. Especially my son. He would love to know that he helps me. We are...
I know exactly how you feel, I could have written this post. Understand and live EVERY word you wrote. All we can do is vent when we can, and hang in there. Dory...
Hi, I don't post here much at all, but I'm reading all the time. Just being here sometimes makes me feel a little better, and I do learn a lot. Now my little vent. My sister has CD, as well as...
Hi there, it's been a long time since I've posted anything here, but I'm always here reading and learning. I thought on this one i could share my experience. Before my last surgery the Dr. ordered a...
Congratulations, sounds like things are under control for you!!!! Good luck, and I hope it stays this way!! Dory...
I haven't posted anything in quite a while. I haven't even been on here in a while. I don't recognize most of the names anymore. Things just keep going from bad to worse for me, and I find I isolate...
Atedogs, Thank you. For appreciating my sons. And yes my son will be home from Afghanistan early next year, and he is going to give it his all. This is so hard on him. He was finally off his meds for...
Thanks for the replies. Rosie- Another one of my "problems" is that I can't take any of the Crohn's meds. I have reactions or they just don't work. I've been on all of them at one time or another. My...
I'm usually on the Crohn's forum, but I also have depression, and have never come over here, I don't know why. I'm on anti depressants. This week has been a real doosie though. I just can't seem to...
