Hi Everyone! So, I just got my 3rd dose of covid vaccine today. Does anyone know or have read anything about what immunity is after third dose? I’m on humira. Thanks!

Yes, I got a call from my GI on Friday, I can get it this week! Yay!!!

Canada’s eligibility works differently then the US. IBF patients just became eligible this week.

8 weeks after second dose

Thank you! I just forwarded this to my GI and will wait to hear back.

Can you post the link for that?

Ya, I’m not sure. He just told me that I’m not eligible yet. He said everyone is going to need a booster soon. He also mentioned people taking drugs like Imuran and Methotrexate are more immune compromised and would possibly qualify. But I only take humira.

Yes, I’m in Ontario and yes the meds are on the list but the people that have had transplant or other serious medical issues are able to get booster, IBD patients are not eligible yet.

I spoke to my GI and it is not being offered to people taking humira for any IBD

I take a tumeric supplement aswell. But this is a powder mixture of turmeric, cinnamon, and ginger. Supposed to mix it with warm milk.

Anyone ever tried a drink that’s called turmeric tea? Or some people call it magic milk?

Hi, I am taking humira, around the 5 year make I had to switch to weekly injections.

I also want to add, the meds you are on I took when I was first diagnosed with crohns and they gave me 10 years of great remission.

Aw…thank you. That’s me and my one and only son, my pride and joy and who keeps me motivated to stay healthy.

What you are describing I would consider a bad day, not necessarily a flare.

I agree with others, Metamucil is terrible for my crohns.

Hi! I took this med awhile back, it worked well for me and gave me remission for almost 10 years. One thing I do remember is the yellow pee and it did take a little while to fully work, so try and be patient and maybe symptoms will calm down.

I’m finding the same, the actual foods don’t make too much of a difference, but I do find smaller meals, lots of water are important for me staying well. I’m also realizing low sleep is a very big trigger.

Hi! I don’t have a kid with IBD, but am a teacher so I will offer my view and maybe other options. Last school year in my school classes were a bit smaller due to kids being online. A few things to consider, at this age they do spend a great deal of time outdoors and in my school each JK student...

Hi Everyone, What are some foods that work for you? What does a day of food look like for you? I’m having to be very careful with what food I eat, glares are coming more often and so I’m assuming surgery could be my next step, but in the meantime I would like to know what food works ok for your...
