I actually understand you, a lot. As soon as i find something that doesn't trigger me, I stay on that and refuse to eat anything else. I don't care how boring it is. At the moment i'm eating Chicken soup. All day every day. Which gives me lots of liquid. I do get some nutrients from all the...

Thank you so much for your replies!! I'm trying to make life as liveable and "normal" as possible, to keep functioning every day. But it's difficult. Last three years i'm flaring a lot and trying medications after medications to try to control the inflammation. Now i spend most my time in...

You survive on salt and beef? I tried to go carnivore. It helped slightly, but i felt it was mostly cause i left all carbs behind. Red meat doesn't work so well for me. But chicken and salmon does. And limiting carbs. but i honestly don't know the answer. I try different things...

What kind of pain killers do you take for you Crohns??? And how do you deal with the stigma of pain killers? My fear is not being taken seriously by doctors if i ask for pain killers. That they might look at me like a drug addict. So i often rather suffer. Or take Kratom and Marijuana. Which...

Thank you for your reply :-)

Marijuana helps me so much for my pain and depression!! :-) Kratom helps me a lot when i have to leave the house and i'm scared of not finding a toilet. But if i use too much i start to feel nauseous so i only use it if i really really need to. It's so crazy that patients have to turn to...

Hello Everybody! I'm just wondering if anyone here has tried Ozanimod or Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor?? After other medications have failed. I'm at that point of the road right now. i've been unable to taper off prednisone, for 2 years now. And I'm not a candidate for surgery. Now it seems...
