    Ohhhh yea, the prednisone gives you the worst munchies ever.. had me a little scared too, I solved my constipation problems by eliminating the percocet and adding prune juice to my diet though. My god prune juice is a godsend. Unfortunatly it came too late, I apparently have a couple good sized...

    Advice please am scared..

    I know it sounds difficult but you have to relax and know that you'll get better. Everyone has those days where you think the worst but you have to realize that you can only get better.. We're here for you, don't be afraid to ask any questions =]

    I had a blood test taken before I started it to test how fast I metabolize or something like that.. I just left a message for my doctor and I've started using supositories so hopefully relief will come soon

    I'll be stopping the advil as soon as I can get my constipation under control which will hopefully be soon. I think I found that the culprit is the 6 mp

    I think I may be having a bad reaction to mercaptopurine. Ever since I left the hospital I've had the most painful, thick, kinda green stool. I've spent 2 days trying to figure out and solve my problem but nothing works.. so I started to think, what has changed since I got out of the hospital...

    I don't care for hunny, and I have considered add psyllium fiber to my diet but I would like to try this methylcellul,ose fiber first because it is supposed to work ad good if not better then psyllium fiber and not have any of the side effects like gas.. Citrucel is actually made for people...

    Hello, one more teen crohnie ...

    That sounds nice, during my hospital stay I had my own room.. while walking around I noticed that I was the only person under 80 and according to my dad the put me in the dialesis ward or something? I think that's how you spell it.. it was weird, and incredibly depressing.. I would have welcomed...

    New pressure/sharp pains

    Call your doctor immediately, this is what I experienced a week before I was rushed to the hospital with a perforated intestine, it turned out that those pains that I was having (halfway between my crotch and belly button, always worse when I had a full bladder or had to poop) were micro...

    That's my problem, my body doesn't know to send any of my fluids to my stool, I will spend the night getting up every hour with a full bladder going to the bathroom like 7-9 times yet none of it ends of in my stool. I've been taking the citrucel pills hoping that it will soak up the water and...

    Yea I didn't have too many.. just enough to fill my craving for that food group haha. And I have been going. I went just an hour ago, but it was the size of a red bull =/ and I'm not exagerating either..

    Fistulas

    Yea, it isn't goopy like puss yet, and hopefully it won't get that way.. right now I just have a steady leakage the color of fire, it's like yellow/orange/red.. what worries me is that it just never stops. It's like a leaky faucet.

    I hate tea, I actually just ate some chocolate covered macadamia nuts because I can't stop eating haha, and I've had this constipation since I left the hospital and for about a week and a half after I made it out of there I severly cut down on my fiber intake as suggested by every single crohn's...

    How many Ct scans have you all had

    I've had 2 in the past month, first one was to diagnose my crohn's which I had to drink the barium, and the second was an emergency one that showed my perforated intestine

    Thank you once again, this support is really helping me get through this. Makes it feel like I'm actually working towards getting better, but unfortunately I've everything to soften my stools and the only way I can bear the pain is doubling up on percocet 20 minutes before a movement. My mom...

    Fistulas

    Does anyone else have a problem with fistulates? I think I spelled that right, I have an extra canal type thing from an abcess that was drained in my right butt cheeck which doesn't seem to cause much embarassing problems for me. However I just had surgery a couple weeks ago on my stomach and I...

    Yes I have heard of colace and happen to be taking it at the moment and have been ever since I left the hospital.. they did let me out of the hospital before I pooped but that's because I was farting enough that they knew my bowels were awake and I had a bowel movement soon after leaving the...
