I have lost two jobs because of the illness one in 2005 and one in 2006. The problem with each is although I had a valid medical excuse I had signed a contract with each call center. Long story short...
More poison to treat us.... I am always waiting to hear of something like a vitamin lol. I was hopeful back in 2003 during the VSL3 trial ran at my clinic, but alas it was too good to be true while...
I take an iron supplement called FERAMAX. It is the only one I have tried to date that I can tolerate without getting constipated. I don't think I could eat 150mg of iron via food every single day I...
My friend tried telling me such and such amount of this smoked was more powerful than steroids for inflammation, it might be for some, but I have smoked grams upon grams and this has nothing on...
I think this plant is like any other medication. Results will vary. This plant assists with nothing other than pain and appetite for myself. It doesn't stop my intestines from bleeding. It doesn't...
As long as you feel up to it I would say go for it. You do have greater risk of infection etc. if you get any wounds. But I would say if you feel healthy and able, go for it....
This is where it can get interesting lol. I wanna ask Rango if you ever drink alcohol? I certainly would hope not with an attitude like that....
It can be a great option for some. I think Peter made a very good decision to open this to discussion. I highly doubt MJ interacts with any of the medications you may already take. Although it is...
Thanks IDES. Not that I didn't believe you but I talked with my nurse practitioner today and she confirms what you and google already had. IMURAN+WARTS of any kind can be troublesome more so than...
Thanks for your reply. Both people were young, a little younger than myself. one was 19 before and the last early 20's. I am 30 NOW myself. Maybe I am over reacting I don't know. I need some serious...
I deleted the comment you can delete yours as well if you like. I didnt mean ot post in this old thread. I have written my feelings in my newer thread. Feel free to give me your two cents on where I...
I think JAB makes a good comment. For me it is very stressful. I will suffer through it and pray that like most healthy people within 2 years my body will fight the virus off. I have 3 types of...
Warts are cause by HPV...not herpes. there is a vaccination but too late for that. They have no oral anti viral to fight them :( I guess I can be happy they are not the genital kind :(...
Anyone on imuran and have warts? I noticed a "common" wart on my finger it seemed like it was not there one night and appeared when I woke up. I have since noticed several similar warts appear...
You need to try your own tricks... everyone is so different. Try starting a food diary keep this on going for a year and see if you can find trigger foods. Take your meds reguraly. Talk to doctor...
There are tons. Homemade cultures can yield high counts. The highest count and only probiotic to under go clincal trial is VSL#3 and it is proven in a few things to help but for the most part with CD...
Well depedning on severity there would be a few options I think in your case that is a last option. First I would assume to try meds, remicade has been know to really help. ASsuming you have tryed...
Hey thank you for the reply. I have googled and done research, but also was hoping for a little more input. This is not the most active forum. Lamictal would be my choice but then I think of the...
Hey guys and gals. Does anyone currently or have you took one of these? I need to get off the olanzapne for side effects. I have tryed lamotrogine in the past, but honestly it didnt after awhile help...
Yes. Talk with your doctor. Weight gain is less common with seroqeul compared to something like Zyprexa, but even still there has to be something that has even less or hopefully no relation to weight...
Wow this message board is really lacking not even one reply lol. In case anyone else is wondering I have started the combo. My doctor said they are kinda contradicting but not totally as there is a...
Is this a normal combo? I have found a few people that have done this combo in searches. What seems odd to me is is that wellbutrin reuptakes dop while olanazapine blocks it. It seems a bit...
Just slammed down the first glass... easy as pie and now onto the gatorade. Kinda worries me you said you ended up unconscious. heh I am home alone for next hour have to hope for the best......

o.k... long story. But has anyone used this for the colonoscopy? It says on it to "Talk with your doctor if you have IBD before taking. Long story short I didnt get in touch with the doctor and I...
Thanks guys, my Mom actually talked to the pharmacy she goes to and they gave her something orange flavour.. I am not sure what it is she told me what was in it and it sounded like it may have been a...
Thanks I am gonna call them on Monday. In the hopsital they gave me something that actually didnt taste too bad and it might have been a litre tops, pretty sure it was less in fact. I don't know what...
Hey guys, My doctor has me down to use "Go lightly" Is this the great big jug with poweder in it? What else is there? I know in hospital they gave me something that was a breeze..... Whenever I have...
Thanks guys. I have apointment with GP on 10th and colonoscopy on 25th. Felt a little better yesterday and today but still I get wave of fatigue and just feel like it is related to my guts. If I fart...
Anyone ever feel really drained? I am not in a horrible flare but I Have very little energy. Everything seems tiring that normally wouldnt like walking up stairs. I Have not been eating the best or...
Thanks for the replies guys :) It is a hell of a disease. It always is nice to read from people on the forums and not just google. They did mention my tags turning to cancer... maybe mine are really...
Sorry to hear you are having these problems. I can imagine what it must be like to have your parents view on the situation. I suppose given the information you will have to keep roughing through it....
Wow. Ever since my surgery in 2003 my anus has been inflamed. At times, very very much, most times these days moderate but there to notice and there is scar tissue of course. I worry a lot about...
Yah you are right herpes sucks. I have not had a cold sore since Sept. I have had some real problems in the past with them. SO embarrassing. I can not afford valtrex but that stuff works great if...
If I am really sick I can usually get in, in 1-2 weeks if symptoms are serious. If I am normal I go every 6 months, if I am ify they have me in every 3 months. For regular check up when all is well...
I had a perforation from an abscess in 2003. Emergency surgery. I have had battles with this disease often but for the most part 10 years later it is a lot more mild. Knock on wood. Hopefully your...
I worry to. But what I have learned is there is no real "safer alternative" unless you have success with alternate more natural therapies which is not as common with good results. I have taken it on...
The surgeon wont remove mine thinks they might come back they would just be worse. I actually go on the 26th to an appointment with the sergeon he just wants to make sure they are not changing...
Lol... such a silly question I have had this dd for almost 11 years... for the last 7 my iron was always low but I just shrugged it off as other than being extra pale it didnt really have any effects...
Thanks guys! Google, duh! lol.... Seems the infusions are working cause it was somthing around 10 before the 3 infusions still 2 more left then I see nurse....
