Been a while since dropping into the forum here. A bit scatterbrained at the moment with many changes and progress happening at once. But today? Today I'm just out of energy and out of my reserves. Headache, guts being squirrely, joints hurt, no appetite, just a generally blahh and "crohnsie" kind of day.
Been pushing both physically and mentally. Hoping to remove methotrexate from my med mix this next week, I'm done with it and called in last week to let the office know I'm no longer compliant and need an alternative option to try. Second time I've ever kicked a drug without prior authorization, but I can't tolerate side effects and none of the options attempted to treat them have helped enough. Anxious, guess I'm anxious about it all but doc. wont likely be surprised since I've been asking to stop taking it for 6 months.
Working on a 1500 word essay for a contest. The $3,000 prize is highly motivating, and I'm getting to write about Crohn's while addressing the prompt. Not the first time, but certainly the first time I'm looking to publish my experience with Crohn's. Hopefully I'm doing it justice. I have 3 weeks left to take my current draft to publishing quality. A fair chunk of it has been writing/ thought of while in the bathroom. Lol!
