Update after MRI/+ Question, regarding what i can do...


"....There is a complex fistula with tethering of multiple loops of bowel in the right lower quadrant, involvement several loops of distal ileum, sigmoid colon, and likely the appendix. There is associated bowel wall thickening and enhancement of the involved loops compatible with active Crohns. Seen is a 2.7 cm gas-containing inflammatory mass posterior to a loop of distal ileum involved with the fistula."


This does jive with how it feels as food passes it.

My question is, what can i do about this? Im very nervous in facing the possibility of remicade/infusion, as i have severe anxiety being in hospital for even an hour/2 hours... I mean, maybe I could do an hour, but still it builds up over time and i cannot stop myself from getting impatient.

There must be an alternative, right?
