I'm a 19 year old college student & I'm being treated for Crohn's and Colitis. This all started in 2008 when I was hospitalized with lymphoma, then later found out I had a severe infection, we assume that this is what triggered my condition. In 2011 I had my gallbladder and appendix taken out & even after 6 colonoscopies and 2 endoscopes, It's not written in the book exactly what I have. I take Asacol 3 times daily. 100mg of imuran twice daily, And zofran and donnatal as needed. I work full time and am in college full time. My GI doc just double my dose because I was on imuran 100mg in the morning. I'm not sure if this is a side effect, but I'm not hungry. The smell of food makes me sick. Every time I go to eat,
I take a bite and I'm stuffed. I have no appetite and it's been like this for almost a week. I'm so drained. It could possibly be because of stress, but I don't feel stressed. I just feel lost. I feel like I've lost myself to this disease. I really hate just feeling so down. I have no life left in me and I'm not sure what to do next. My doctor has really saved me. I appreciate him so much, but I'm kinda at a standstill. I'm very close with my family so I do have people to talk to, I'm just drained. Any suggestions to a doctor or just my personal well being ?
