While what form of "meat" the the goop in the picture actually is has not yet been confirmed, it's not McDonald's. They've been using actual white chicken meat for a while for their nuggets. Something like this would be more what you'd find in Tyson nuggets, where the meat has the consistency...

In my case, it meant a temporary loss of ability, as opposed to desire. Which is to say, mechanical issues that shouldn't affect you. It was especially frustrating, because prior to starting on the amitriptyline I was dealing with loss of libido from the depression.

I was about 50 lbs underweight when I started on prednisone and gained it all back in about 2 months. I've had to go back on it twice since and while I've noticed some weight gain, it's only been a few pounds. But I do try to catch myself from eating an extra meal because of the added hunger. I...

I was on amitriptyline for a while to treat my Crohn's and depression simultaneously. I had decent success with it, but I also suffered from pretty much every side effect it had to offer: dry mouth, difficulty urinating, sleepiness, and what ended up being a deal breaker, sexual side effects...

I never had a problem until my most recent flare-up. In my case, I think it was a combination of depression and lack of energy. I had lost about 50lbs and was severely anemic. I knew about the weight loss, but not the anemia, and I think that sapped a lot more energy than I realized. I took...

I began to present symptoms after I had started grad school and moved in with my girlfriend. In hindsight, it is now very apparent that the stress from one or both of these was the trigger, or at least a major contributing factor. Once I was diagnosed, I decided to take a semester off. I...

I went on Remicade when it was still pretty new--about seven years ago. I was only on it for a few months, but I never had any problems. I'm on prednisone now because I no longer have insurance and I'm just coming off a flare-up. I was on it for almost six months and other than the weight gain...

I first went on prednisone at the end of last year, and it was night and day for me. In less than 48 hours I went from complete misery to no pain. I was 50 lbs underweight by that point, so I was eating everything in sight. I even started experimenting with foods I hadn't dared try in years. I...

Hi! I think my story is pretty straightforward, at least as much as Crohn's can be. I was diagnosed about seven years ago after about six months of severe cramping. I ended up losing about 50 lbs before I finally woke up and went to see a doctor. My first round of treatment was 6mp and Pentasa...
