where are all the kiwis

15 thousand people in new zealand diagnosed with crohns, we have the highest percentage in the world, why? would love to know. any ideas?
and where are they, only 17 kiwis on here.

 

[EthanPSU]

Where do you find out the diagnosed per area number? I would like to know the US's and even better, maybe my state.

 

[Trev]

The Crohn's rate is too high everywhere in the world.

 

[Crohn's 35]

ED, from what I have read Canada has one of the highest incidence of Crohns per capita. I am sure I will be proven wrong otherwise.:smile:

Dare I say it Trev? Making the sheep nervous............utahere:

Hey Trev

We had that chron's awareness thing that seemed to make the national papers and news, eh? I sort of missed it. I have no idea why it is so high here. In my group of girlfriends one of their daughters has it, another her son has it - it seems strange. Just about every person I meet knows someone who has chrons. Have you got any ideas - maybe too much 1080 being sprayed?

hi Trev! just been diagnosed myself this year, read alot of useful info here! but never registered until i saw ya asking where the kiwis are

 

[Dallies]

Hi Bogalo, would you like to add a little something about yourself in, "My Story" so that we can welcome you properly xx

Just thought I'd say "hi" to you from windy Wellington ;-)

 

[Aura]

Hey Daisy
How is Wellington? Did you get snow on the Rimutaka's yesterday? I used to live in the Lower Hutt, then Western Hills, then Boganville in Birchville Upper Hutt. I love wild weather but I do not miss the cold cold southerlies and the wind that you can hardly stand up in.

 

[bogalo]

hey dallies, just did my story

 

[Daisy G]

Hey Aura
Sorry not sure if there was some snow fall on the Rimutakas yesterday but it sure felt like it, it was like 7.5 degrees yesterday and yes the wonderful Southerly was blowing so beanie and gloves and several layers of clothes were in order. Are you missing Welly now?

 

[Aura]

Hi Daisy
Sweet Lordy I am not missing that cold wind at all. We had a frost but that was all, nice calm blue sky day, I am liking the Bay of Plenty :ybiggrin:

 

[DustyKat]

[Crohn's 35]

I have been reading it in our papers, but since today is a holiday I didnt get the paper today. I have been in :awe: watching what is going on. Last I heard there were no casualities and said it was a miracle! Hugs and prayers sent to you all!
