Diagnosed in 1979 when 18. Operation to remove part of ileum and colon in 2000. Been clear of Crohns since then. New consultant who diagnosed bile malabsorbtion 6 months ago. Since October diarrhoea 6 - 12 times a day and for the last month bad cramps. Consultant says I need to take prednisolone starting at 40mg. I hate those drugs those and my bones are now not good because of medication when I was young. Been trying predfoam enemas for the past week but not feeling any better. Still cramps and diarrhoea. Has anyone got their Crohns under control just using predfoam retention enemas, or is it best to just get on with it and take the prednisolone?
Just want to hear what others have done. And feeling very fed up.
