    Weight loss diets and Crohn's?

    Doesn't Paleo contain a lot of nuts and fiber? At least that was my undderstanding.

    Weight loss diets and Crohn's?

    That is what I am wondering is if anyone has found a good calorie count they like or something similair that has helped them to lose, but not cause their Crohn's to give them issues.

    Weight loss diets and Crohn's?

    Does the juicing seem to break it down easier for you to eat it?

    Weight loss diets and Crohn's?

    So I have the opposite problem that many with Crohn's seem to have, and that's not being able to lose weight. I've tried weight watchers and con't seem to do anything with it. my doctor has me on a low residue diet, so all of the good fruits and vegetables that WW wants you to eat, I can not...

    Norco, Motrin, and nausea

    I have gotten off the Nsaids and I am taking the Tylenol. I don't think my caregivers at the hospital really listened about me having Crohn's. I'm still sick, but after doing some research, my mom and I think it couod be post partum morning sickness. It happens the same time every night. I just...

    Norco, Motrin, and nausea

    I just had a c-section on March 1st. They gave me Norco and Motrin for the pain, which I did not know can cause constipation. for the past 3 days I've had nausea and feeling like total crap. Went to the ER and they said it wasn't an infection from my c-section. And my GI doc today said he...

    Thickening of the terminal ileum/pregnancy

    It is not a problem. I was actually able to talk to the radiologist that read my MRI (one perk of being an MRI tech) and he said it actually looked better than it had before and that I shouldn't worry. And I see my GI doc Tuesday so it's all good!

    Was told ok, now told to wait...

    The nurse said he is booked until my appointment date. She said if someone cancels she will call me first. So I am at least on the list. The unfourtunant thing is he only has one office day a week and he is going on a two week vacation. I really like him for my doctor, but the one day a work sucks!

    Thank you guys very much!! It make me feel better. I just am all freaked out over something that is nothing. I'm just new to all of this, so I'm never sure of when I should panic and when I shouldn't!

    Was told ok, now told to wait...

    So I'm not sure if I am over thinking this or not. My last appointment, my Dr. made it sounds as though I was good to start trying for a baby, I just needed to have an MRE. Well, the MRE is done. I received a call to set up a follow up appointment. I asked the nurse if she could ask the Dr...

    Thickening of the terminal ileum/pregnancy

    I had an MRE. The report came back as thickening of the terminal ileum (which is where my Crohn's was found originally). The report said the fluid sac that was a question of an abscess is no longer present. There is also a question of a collapse of the sigmoid, but further testing may be...

    Colonoscopy down, MRI to go!!

    I just had my MRI done last Wednesday. I recieved the results today. I have to say the worst part about it was not what I had to drink (though it did not taste the greatest) but the amount I had to drink. I was asked to drink 3 450 mL bottles of Volumen. Near the end I started to feel sick...

    Favorite exercise?

    I have been doing Zumba and I love it! My instructor is awesome! And I am trying to walk 5 miles a week. I have been using Map My Run and walking to my iPod. So far down 10 pounds, but neither one stresses me out. :yoshijumpjoy:

    Colonoscopy down, MRI to go!!

    I'm actually an MRI tech. We have started to do more MRE (Magnetic Resonance Enterography) exams. From what I have seen they are able to make a diagnosis of Crohn's from this exam. We have mostly been doing them on pediatric patients. I go to see my gastro doc next week. I may ask him if he...

    In a little bit of a panic, not sure what to do...

    I was just diagnosed with Crohn's in December. I did really well for the first month or so with eating right and following the low residue diet. But then I started feeling better, and started losing control of my diet. So I have been feeling not so great. I have been taking my medication as...
