    About Me

    I will be married for 5 years this February. No kids unless, you count the two cutest little Daschunds in the whole freaking world...oh yeah and my husband (ok, so I have 3 kids). Diagnosed in July 2006 with Crohn's disease. Went in for surgery to remove my gall bladder and appendix, and woke up with a Crohn's diagnosis.

    Interests

    I enjoy going to concerts, playing with my dogs, spending time with family, shopping...oh and discussing my bowels with you fine people. **smooches**

    • Close Crohn's Disease & Ulcerative Colitis

      My Crohn's was spotted during a appendectomy and cholecystectomy 2 years ago. Turns out that the gall bladder and appendix were both fine.

      Treatments

      Asacol Working / Worked
      Pentasa is working after being given Asacol by some retard that should not be allowed to have DR. in front of his name.
      Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Working / Worked
      I miss berries, granola, celery..you know all the good stuff. Low resudie diets SUCK!
      Dietary Modification Working / Worked
      Low-residue diet. It is BORING, but at least I do not feel like I ate glass when I follow it.
      Entocort Working / Worked
      Side effects included acne...surprisingly, no weight gain. THANK GOODNESS!
      Flagyl Not Working
      it makes me hurl like Linda Blair.
      Lomotil Working / Worked
      It did work, but I never really had to use it much.
      Probiotics Considering
      Not sure where to start, a little overwhelming.
      Remicade Working / Worked
      Awesome drug. But I think that it is causing skin cancer...eek.
      Surgery Considering
      My GI does not want to because of the risk of recurrence next to the reattachment point. Sometimes I would rather have them just cut the bad parts out.
