Hey, my name is Darryl, i live close to Toronto, was recently Diagnosed in the beginning of May 2006 with Crohn's....have been on the Big P for about 11 days now at 80mg/day (May 24), luckily i have not experienced many side effects so far, touch wood (only about 3 lbs of weight gain). I am also, through the help of a naturopath, am starting a hypoallergenic diet to try and identify foods that may be aggravating my Crohn's. I am on day 3 of this diet and am definitly not that excited about being on it, basically everythign i normally eat has been written off, but if it will help me have a chance at going into remission its worth it. I was, until my symtpoms started up, big into weight training/body building and huge into hockey, but now due to complications i have been out of the gym for 4 months and greatly miss my previous lifestyle. Since January i have dropped from a lean 238lbs, to about 200lbs today, basically all due to muscle loss. My goal is too one day be able to get back into the gym and resume my passions for life..thats all
