    My husband is DRIVING ME CRAZY

    Once again I am so glad that I am not alone on this issue either. I just got back from my GI (AKA hottie life saver) and he agreed that sleep is necessary and the stress is only going to make me sick again. I told him that I had been thinking about leaving my husband and he said that if will...

    My husband is DRIVING ME CRAZY

    Thank you all for the input. I do think it is time for a sit down. Most times that does not even work with him. I have an apt tomorrow that I asked him to come to so he can hear my dr say that being tires is natural but of course he will not because his work is too important. I have thought...

    My husband is DRIVING ME CRAZY

    I think you all can agree that this annoying disease makes you so tired sometimes (almost all of the time) that all you want to do is sleep or at the least sit down and relax more tham most people. Well....my husband thinks that he is entitled to do whatever he whenever he wants and does not...

    To Puke or not to Puke?

    When I get nauseaus to the point where it consumes my every thought I cannot seem to not puke. I hate to say it but when I was a teen I had the binge/purge thing so I have the voluntary pucking thing down. I would probably say it is about once or twice a week. It is not that I like it but I HATE...

    Urgent Care

    That is always a difficult decision. Is there any other dr in his practice? If not I would go to urgent care as it sounds like you feel horrible. I hope you feel better soon.

    What do you do with you old pouches?

    When I had an iliostomy I had a home health nurse come to my house..(there was a lot of healthe issues going on at one time). When I had left over supplies for whatever reason I gave them to her. She could not give them back to the supplier but she appreciated them as she could use them with her...

    In the Hospital Again

    Crohn's definately does suck. I am so sorry you are feeling so bad. About a year ago I spent more time in the hospital over a 7 month period than I spent at home so I can sympothize. Hope you feel better soon and keep us posted.

    Help!! I've just been diagnosed with Crohn's

    One thing that works for me when I am in a lot of pain it to take a few days and go on a liquid diet to try and clean myself out. After that I try a few things...mashed potato one night maybe with a small piece of chicken and see how I feel the next day. I slowly add different foods and yes...

    Just wondering

    I have had to have colonoscopys every 6 months and it is killing me. I do not mind the test so much since I am sedated it is the prep that I cannot take anymore. Is this pill cam thing as accurate as a colonoscopy? I am guessing the only thing they cannot do is take samples if needed. I am due...

    Remicade Issues

    Thank you all for your input. My dr is wonderful. He just mentioned it. He would pre med me more than last time and I would be in the hospital also just in case. He is fine with me saying no. He saved my life and I trust him 110%. What are downfalls about Humeria? I have to make my next apt with...

    Remicade Issues

    Thanks for the response. I was not sure if anyone else had a bad reaction to it. It seems as though everyone loves what it does. I am going to ask about Humeria. So you have had success with that?
