Hi all
My wife (or very soon to be) is having a hard time, in terms of my stuff stressing her out. She's more concerned and worried about me than anything. I am recently diagnosed, and obviously haven't found what is going to help med wise. Right now I'm trying to be the typical man and do whatever we want, but she sees that I'm in pain or uncomfortable. It's also an issue that I won't eat if we're out with a group, or long periods of time, because I know I'll have to excuse myself... Probably more than 1 or 2 times. I'm in a lot of discomfort and pain most nights, so most nights she finds I've had to head to the couch for a few hours so I don't disturb her while I try to get comfortable. Without her I'd be lost because she helps me more than she knows, but to see her be down and out and upset b/c I'm stressing her out (which she would never say) is killing me. Meds wise my gi doc is approving my insurance for humira and has me on prednisone and azathioprine 10/50mg. Pain wise I'm having issues getting anyone to give me anything. I live in Las Vegas nv and feel more like an addict asking for meds than a patient. Any advice is appreciated
Thanks and hope everyone's doing well!
