Can’t believe the toll this disease has taken on me. 41 years of age. My ex is fighting me for custody of my 11 year old. I am angry and depressed and have no real future. My parents are still alive and they try to help. I am on SSI. How do I start to turn my life around.
25 years of multiple pills, injections, infusions and allergic reaction. Are there potential long term damages from these medications?

Hi. I am sorry all you are going through. You have come upon a great support group. Answeing the title, i think some medications may have long term side effects and some are short. I hope your doctor can get you on the right medicine to put you in remission and the rest of your life can turn around.

Just my opinion but, a fecal transplant might turn your life around if you can find a healthy donor. Also, there is more of a risk of the disease killing you before the meds ever will.
Sorry to hear your troubles. I’ve had this disease since I was 6. I’ve had depression since I was a teenager. I would suggest dealing with the depression. Are you working with a Psychiatrist? It took a long time to get my depression under control. Once I did everything else got easier
