ok I'll try that! Thank you!...
I have had terrible side effects when I was on Remicade. I got drug induced psorasis. It started eight months ago and it looks like I now have a lifetime of psorasis on my hands to deal with on top...
Ok, so I am infrequent member and if anyone remembers I was doing very poorly the last time I posted. However I need some help. I was wondering if someone might be able to point me in the right...
I just started taking Evening Primrose Oil pills. A girl at my work actually gave me a bottle, and a bunch of people at my job actually swear by it. But I will just have to see. Thanks for posting...
I had a reaction to Remicade but was able to try both Humira and Cimzia. Neither really seem to help me, but at least I got to try. Are they worried that it's the general TNF blocker that is causing...
. Are there glutin-free brands of sandwich bread out there? Yes, they taste awful except for Udi's which is expensive about $5 a loaf -- if you can find it where you live. I've just recently found a...
I graduated from college last may and lost my health insurance. I live in the US by the way. I am currently without health insurance and could give you A LOT of information from the standpoint of...
I can not take Humira because of my reaction to remicade, but I have not heard of Cimzia. Do you have experience with this drug? I am just afraid to medicate at all, because I literally lost any...
Oh my gosh!!! Thank you!!!! I have not met ANYONE who has any idea what is going on with me!!! This is SUCH A RELIEF! This literally made my day. I have about nine million questions for you, lol, but...
I was recently taken off remicade for severe complications. I am covered in sores and have lost most of my hair. My doctor put me back on predinose to hopefully deal with the rash and hair loss, but...
I continued to drink while taking entorcort and my doc knew I drank and just monitered my liver function with blood work every couple weeks. I was 23 at the time, in college and probably drinking...
Hi all! When I first went to my doc complaining of diarrhea (before I was diagnosed) he perscribed something that I think were similar to metamucial fiber wafers. I recently mentioned it to my mom...
So I am actually a member in the Crohn's disease forum of healingwell. I was given Remicade for my Crohn's disease, (which can also be used to treat psoriasis and arthritis and some others.) Long...
Does anyone have any experience with the SCD diet and it's relation to Crohn's symptoms? Or can someone point me to a post that may have previously asked this question? (BTW my most annoying symptoms...
Thanks Ivy! I am angry with my doctor's as well. I am honestly considering trying to treat myself homepathically because my life now is so much worse than before I went to doctors! I am angry as well...
I have had the same question actually. I have diarrhea really bad, also. Bloody and anywhere from 5-30 times a day. I have a friend with Cyliac (Sp?) and she can't get wheat or gluten. She responded...
Crohniac- How did you feel after surgery? Was it worth it? I need surgery that sounds similar to what you describing but because I don't have health insurance, I can't get it right now. I am going to...
I am on Prednisone right now, 20mg about to taper off and get off of it completly. It makes me crazy, I can't imagaine how you must feel with that high og a dosage. Personally they gave me Ativan to...
And I also just noticed that I spelled Crohn's disease wrong the entire submission, didn't capitalize a single drug, and basically didn't read my own work. I apologize if that was unbearable to read....
Hi, my name is Samantha and I have been diagnosed with Crohn's disease for about two years now. I am currently in a severe flare up, as I have been for the last 5-6 years. I have taken prednisone,...
