Hey Everyone,
I want to share my success story so here it goes.
I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease on July 17, 2006. My initial symptoms, which began in May of 2006, were loose stools combined with small amounts of blood. I experienced severe lower stomach pain and extreme weight loss. I lost around 30 lbs in the first couple of months.
The initial treatment for my disease was 40mg of Prednisone daily. After a colonoscopy I was informed that I had mild to severe Crohn’s disease in the corner of the transverse and descending colon, as well as the corner of the ascending and the transverse colon, and the cecum.
After taking the Prednisone my symptoms disappeared within days. I continued taking 40mg daily for approximately a month and gradually tapered to 5mg a day. While taking 5mg my symptoms of pain, bloody stools and diarrhea reappeared. After this occurred I increased my Prednisone intake back to 40mg. The second time I tried tapering off the Prednisone I took Pentasa along with the Prednisone. Once again when I was taking higher amounts of the Prednisone my symptoms disappeared. After tapering the Prednisone, and taking Pentasa, my symptoms reappeared when I had decreased my Prednisone to 10mg. Again I had to increase my Prednisone to 40mg daily.
In March of 2007 I changed Crohn’s specialists for a second opinion. I continued trying to wean off my Prednisone but was unsuccessful numerous times. In August of 2007 I was hospitalized for four days. During my stay I received my second colonoscopy with my new specialist. The diagnosis was that I had a severe flare up, but that my Crohn’s in general was mild. I was given Prednisone through intravenous and was back up to 40mg upon discharge from the hospital.
In August of 2007 I began seeing a homeopath/herbalist and taking Mannatech nutritional products to try and come up with a strategy to get off the Prednisone.
In June of 2008 I was hospitalized again. The doctors recommended that I begin another form of drug therapy.
In the fall of 2009 I began taking Imuran in addition to a daily dose of 40 mg of Prednisone. After taking the Imuran for 3 months I started to wean off the Prednisone. This time I was successful in weaning off the Prednisone but still experience some mild irritations from my Crohn’s disease. I continued to take 150 mg of the Imuran daily for about a year. In July of 2010 I began to get ill again. I tried taking 40mg of Prednisone to calm the flare but this time the Prednisone did not seem to be working. I even increased the dose to as high as 55 mg of the Prednisone. After being in the hospital two separate times in two weeks, and missing two weeks of work I started the SSI treatment.
I started the SSI treatment on July 26 of 2010 with an initial injection of 0.02 mg. At this time I was taking 40 mg of Prednisone and 150mg of Imuran. Before starting the SSI treatment I was experiencing severe lower abdominal pain and loose stools. In the two weeks I was sick before starting the SSI treatment I lost 24 lbs.
After 7 days and three injections of 0.02mg of the SSI treatment my lower abdominal pain and loose stools were gone. I was regular, feeling normal and back to work. After three weeks I gained 14 lbs back. After a week of the SSI treatment I started weaning off the Prednisone again. On September 15, 2010 I was Prednisone free. On September 28, 2010 a colonoscopy showed no signs of Crohn’s activity. On October 18th, 2010 I stopped taking 150mg of Imuran daily. At this point I was at 0.1mg of the SSI treatment.
In the second week of November I travelled to Mexico for a week and was able to eat and drink whatever I wanted with no side effects of the Crohn’s disease. Prior to the SSI treatment I travelled three times during my difficulties with Crohn’s disease and returned with a flare up every time. This time I was able to enjoy myself and returned feeling as healthy and well as I was before I left.
While I was battling my disease I regularly had colonics treatments and saw a homeopath/herbalist who prescribed natural herbs to help with my healing process.
It wasn’t until I started the SSI treatment that I was able to start healing my body. I believe that this treatment is the sole reason I am off all western medicine today. I’m also glad I no longer have to deal with the side effects that can accompany taking the conventional drugs typically prescribed for Crohn’s disease. I am feeling the best I have ever felt since being diagnosed with Crohn’s disease. I haven’t missed a day of work or had any loose stools since starting the SSI treatment. I feel very grateful to everyone who has helped me along the way in introducing me to the SSI treatment. I have been Crohn's free now for almost 3 years. Qu Biologics is currently doing a SSI clinical trail and is looking for patients. I would strongly recommend looking into it as it has changed my life completely.
