    This disease and love

    FireGutButt Syndrome Club

    I figure this could be a great thread for those needing to either vent or ask the questions about FireGutButt. It can be foods that have caused you trouble, meds, activities, or whatever. I ate red meat. It was the worst thing ever. I will be giving it up. Probably for sometime. Sometimes...

    Butt pain and a new bump?

    I have had pretty bad butt pain recently. It sometimes feels like its being grabbed from the inside. It grabs for a min then lets go. It really sucks when it happens because I end up squeezing my eyes shut to try and stop the pain. Then my eyes start to hurt. My BMs are sometimes pretty...

    Sore throat, not sure what it is. Any ideas?

    So I have a question. I have a sore throat now. Feels like strep throat. I can't see anything, but I'm feeling some "bumps". I'm not sure what it is. I read somewhere that people with Crohn's can have inflamed throats also. Just more of the fun stuff associated with this new craziness. I...
