Hello Everyone my name is Aisha and I am new to the forum. While I don't have Crohn's disease, I do have Hs. I have experienced what I believe are symptoms of Crohn's and I need a little help. I have been experiencing what i initially thought was gas, because I'm also lactose, was much more painful than regular gas. It was like a mix between gas and menstrual cramps together and also feeling like a bladder infection. My doctor is an asshole and I'm afraid to mention it to him, thinking that he will tell me it is my hs, I really need to know what is going on with my body. I was diagnosed with Hs when I was 21. I am now 26 and the pain associated with this horrific disease is unbearable. I see that Crohn's and Hs are linked and was just wondering maybe this is why i felt so much pain. I would also like some tips if possible on ways to make my life easier living with hs. I currently smoke medical mary j for the pain. I don't take pills or anibiotics, they don't work! and I don't like taking pills. Has anyone tried using the Marijuana topical for their skin, I hear that it can cure cancer, but I want to hear proof of someone using it.Sorry for so many questions, I thought I was the only person in the world with hs and i am so excited to see that there are others like me, i even started crying, reading the stories.
