Like your doctor said, it's about weighing the benefits vs the risks of the meds you're taking. It sounds like Crohn's has really started hitting you pretty hard (maybe it's possible it was a mild...
Hey, don't feel bad, and don't feel rushed. I'm just kinda casually browsing the board, so, y'know, I probably wouldn't have noticed if it'd been a few days or what have you. I'm glad you're...
I think it's good for you to be advising caution, mirowpl. Because cannabis is a plant (and the oil derived from it is plant-based), it's almost virtually assured there'll be interactions of some...
I can kind of relate. I've actually been very fear-prone for a majority of my life (starting from childhood - I definitely relate to having a lot of bad things happen over the course of time) and...
I'm glad to hear you're feeling better, Buena! And I'm sorry you've been on such an emotional roller coaster, FP. Breathing exercises and meditation like GB said are definitely helpful things. You...
You sound very discouraged, Tea (mind if I call you Tea?). I'm so sorry all of this is happening to you. And yes, this disease really and truly sucks. My best advice for you is to make sure your...

You should try reading the side effects of the medicine and then consult a doctor because those sound like worrying symptoms. I suffer from sleep issues too as a result of my depression and sometimes...
I'm able to see a primary care doctor for $35 at a sliding scale health clinic (which is where I can get my antidepressant medication). And I can get counseling at this Christian Counseling Center...
Yeah, there's a lot of people who don't understand Crohn's unfortunately. And I dunno. It seems like a lot of people aren't willing to educate themselves about it, either, because it's not happening...
I haven't been to HealingWell in a long time, so I hope you don't mind me popping in here. It's been years (lost my old email account since then, so I had to register under a new one). I suffer from...
Hey, returning member from... Well, years ago here. This was the site I first turned to when I was initially diagnosed at 18 (or maybe 17? It's been a while a little over a decade). I dunno if anyone...
