Just to say hi and introduce myself to the forum.
My girlfriend was diagnosed with Crohns back in December after having severe abdominal pains for a long time.
I guess things started to become real when I ended up taking her to A&E and staying by her side all night not knowing what on earth was wrong.
since then she has been finally diagnosed with Crohns, been on steroids for a while and then the doctors said there really wasn't much more they could do treatment wise so suggested she go for an operation.
She is thankfully through the operation now and recovering. I was amazed by how quickly she recovered in just the first few days once the Morphine wore off.
Things are still unknown and I know there could be a way to go, but I'm hopeful and there to support her in whatever way I can.
So yeah, hi im Gareth and that's my story so far.
