Hello all, having forum lurked for a wee while I thought I'd post.
I have a partner with Crohns, who "we thought" was in remission. Had used humira with no results on lowering inflammation, came off all conventional methods and used homeopathy which worked wonders. Inflamation came down, Iron levels up!
After a hernia operation last year his inflammation levels were going up again, eventually stopped getting bloods done. He had a hospital appointment(supposed to be 2 years ago!) last month and they tested blood and stools and have found serious on going inflammation. They are looking to CT then possible surgery.
He has no pain? The only thing he complains of is feeling a bit blocked up at times which he has been taking movicol for. He also has a stricture, he is so disheartened by this news and I wish I could make it all better but I know I can't.
How best can I support him?
And what do you all think of this?- considering there is no pain would you risk surgery- has never had surgery for it and is terrified at the thought of getting a stoma.
