New to crohn's forum

[Uffie]

Hi

I've been using crohn's forum for months as a useful source of information, but I have found there are questions I can't find answers to so thought i'd join and ask around.

I've had crohn's (near the appendiceal orifice) since 2007. First time was 'mild' and prednisolone did the trick with only a few problems tapering.

I was doing really well, living like a normal person really until 2011 when weird things started happening. I started getting mouth ulcers again and some other random ailments very frequently. The list of problems kept increasing but didn't think that it was a crohn's flare. When i went for my annual check up at the hospital the doc said she thought it sounded like crohn's and after colonoscopy found it was back.

I have been trying various treatments since December 2011 and nothing has worked yet. So i'm going to ask a load of questions to see if anyone else has had similar problems.

I'm grateful for any advice you guys can give.

See you around the forum
