    Starting Soon - Quite Nervous

    Hello everyone. I'm new to posting on this site. I've found a bunch of posts full of great information. I was diagnosed with Crohn's in August 2013. After being diagnosed, I started taking Pentasa w/ Entocort. Unfortunately that was unsuccessful. I then started taking Prednisone w/ the Pentasa...
