Hello Bumpkins and welcome to the Crohn's Forum. It always makes me so sad to hear of a wee one who has been diagnosed with Crohn's. It's so very hard on the parents as well as the child especially when they don't understand and can't verbalize what they are feeling. We do have a forum here...

Hi Victoria and welcome to the Forum! :) I can certainly identify with the tiredness and exhaustion... I'm sure most of it is from the Crohn's. Make yourself at home here... any questions just ask! Welcoming hugs~Nancy

Hello and welcome to the Crohn's Forum! :) First of all congrats on finding your birth family... I have heard that Crohn's does tend to run in families... and I have been on the watch with my own children.. I so don't want them to get it. So far a couple of cases of IBS... Keeping my fingers...

Hello Dee and welcome to the Crohn's Forum! You aren't the only 'older' person on here...LOL You can tack another 10 years on to your age and you have my age. I was diagnosed in my 50's though in 1997. Right now I am not doing too well and waiting for a CT Enterography scan. Just wanted to...

I can't wait!!! :) It's been an extremely long cold snowy winter. August I'm off in search of the elusive muskie... Can't wait to get one of those on my line... and when I do you can bet there will be pics to follow! :thumleft:

Ah Jodi...I'm sorry things didn't go so well today for you and Maddie. I am on something similar to Pentasa..upping it could help and the antibiotics. Also adding Azathioprine would help...I think if it were me I'd be hopping back onto the Prednisone. I was on it in the beginning for over a year...

You must have found it Jodi...I can see where you are from under your name. Thanks! :)

I am so sorry you have been going through all this for so long. I hope you get a firm diagnosis soon and please keep us posted. Welcoming Hugs~Nancy

First of all welcome to the forum Jodi! There are so many caring parents on here with children who have been diagnosed with Crohn's or Colitis just like Maddie, I'm sure many will jump in with help for you and your daughter. Crohn's and/or/ Colitis are difficult to diagnose and are often...

Hi Shirley and welcome to the forum! :) Hopefully this round of Prednisone will help to get you straightened out. I would talk to your doctor about the dizzy spacey feeling you are having though. Also having a serious chronic illness can cause depression, perhaps your doctor can give you...

Happy Belated Birthday!! :)

HAVE A GREAT DAY CRABBY!!
