I remember you!! It's been awhile since I've been here. Hope all is well with you :)...
This is interesting...my dad is a Vietman vet and was dx with multiple myeloma two years ago. I was dx with crohns several years ago. There's no doubt in my mind that his exposure had something to do...
Congrats, wellbutrin also helped mine......
Ahhh, Kidney stones...... I've had them since highschool, 6 eswl's and several basket removals. In fact I just had a 6-7 mm stone blasted on Tuesday on the left side and now I'm having the right side...
wow sniper, I didn't realize they can grow that fast. Mine are calcium oxalate, the past year has been bad. Kidney stones are not new to me, I've had I think 5 eswl's 3 basket removals, and most of...
Went for the results of my 24 hour urine on Tuesday, since I had eswl in Feb of this year, my urologist wanted to make sure there was no fragments left from that procedure, that stone was 9-10mm in...
I drop things all the time too, I do think I have the beginning of carpal tunnel. I don't think its the crohns, but next time your at the doctors ask him/her what they think it might be....
Thanks for your responses!! I'm glad he is able to stretch it out some more. Its just frustrating that its closing down so quickly. I tell you what though, I feel so much better since he stretched...
I was just wondering if any of you have had problems with your anastomosis resulting from bowel resections. My resection was in July of 2003 (small bowl resected along with 1/3 of colon), the site...
I'm 3 years into the remicade stuff. Just had an infusion yesterday. Anyhow, I'm up to 100 mg of benadryl (50 by IV and 50 oral) and solumedrol by IV. I drive home afterwards, benadryl does the...
I get 80 mg of solumedrol, and 100 mg of benadryl, it helps....
interesting, now that I think of it my seasonal allergies have gotten worse, I'm on Allegra D for about 9 months out of the year now. It might be remi related but, who knows...lol...
auntkay, Hope the litho went well. In total I've had 4 litho's, 3 basket's for those nasty kidney stones, I've actually lost count of the number thats passed on their own. I do have 1 sitting in my...
It took about 2 weeks for me once the doc decided that what I needed and then got insurance approval. Hindy, I didn't think remicade was one of the cheaper drugs out there. I mean my insurance got...
Yes, and I ended up with a port so I could still get my remi....
Yes, before I was dx, i had 3 ct scans and none of them showed my obstructions. Maybe the docs's weren't the brightest...lol I'm still wondering how they missed 3 obstructive points in my asending...
dragonfly, I that the illeo-cecal valve removed when I had my resection 3 1/2 years ago. I have lots more D since that surgery, sometimes up to 10 per day also the urgency is awful. Actually the...
Well my pcp is really quick, usually only 15-20 mins wait total. My GI on the other hand is extremely busy so its I usually end up waiting 2 hrs to eventually see him....
Hi Whipporwill3, I had my port placed on July 5th of this year and have no regrets. I've had 2 remi's since then and it goes sooo much easier, no multiple sticks, no searching for an hour for a vein,...
oneday, Please seek another opinion!!!!! I went through similar issues with doctors for years, until I finally got dx with crohns disease about 3 years ago (I believe i've had it for 11 years now)....
