another new one to this
hello every1, my name is leah im a 26yr old female from Victoria Australia. im new to this all and jst looked up this site to chat to ppl with the condition as i feel very alone alot of the time. I cldnt find an aussie one.
iv found it very interesting to read about other ppls storys, i can relate to sooo many!
iv had Chrons desease for about 10yrs and its been a rocky long emtional rd. i have pain every day, and run to the loo on average about 8 times a day. Iv recently had to give away work cos iv been so unwell & weak. iv also tried every medication there is, im now on Humira(not sure if any1 else is on this?) which isnt really doing much either. im a bit confused with the meds in the states to ours here.. the names of some arnt familiar with me.
my specialist is telling me that i will prob have to have more surgery which is totally freaking me out as i had some of my bowl removed about 3yrs ago which did nothing... i was sick again with the sam pains aft only a week. So im really hesitant to have them cut me open again, the surgery was so painful and i will do anything to avoid going thro that again.
Does any1 find a spasific diet helps?? iv tried a few and nothing seems to make a diference for me.
iv also become really depressed, im sad all the time and jst hate my life now and wat the illness has done to me. i used to be so fit outgoing and motivated. Now i dont work, cant exercise cos im so weak and am scared to go out cos im afraid il have to rush to the loo. its all so frustrating, i guess im jst feeling sorry for myself.
im seeing a Sycholegist(not sure of the spelling on that 1) in a few days so hopfully this mit help. Does any1 else see one of these and find it helps them??
sorry to go on, jst needed to vent to ppl who understand.
