Hi I am Karri, my boyfriend is the one who currently carries the burden of Crohn's disease. We have been battling a flare up that has not completely subsided since July 2012. He was diagnosed in 2010 after nearly bleeding to death. (Stubborn Italian!) He spent ten days in the hospital waiting to find out what was wrong. Then the following three months at home recovering from the severe blood loss. He had been in remission for nearly two years, when this last flare up started. His gastro doctor added Humira to his medication regimen, and we have seen some results, but not the results we have been hoping for after being on the medication for seven months. This is our story in a shorter condensed version. We are looking for any insight anyone has to offer. We are at a loss of where to go from here, and his doctor does not seem to be very helpful. (I think it is time for a second opinion) Thank you for reading. Have a beautiful day.
