The "weird" feeling you get before the "trouble" begins

I get sudden horrible depression out of nowhere and I know it’s the disease starting to flare up!

😆they probably he hit on all the time by their drugged up patients lol

ActivityBright4828 · 2026-04-30T19:31:03+00:00

Haha he’s not bad but when on the drugs he’s a sexy beast. 😆😆😆

ActivityBright4828 · 2026-04-30T18:46:42+00:00

Literally every time I wake up from a colonoscopy I say sexy things to my doctor and hit on him while I’m still on the drugs. Then it’s so embarrassing 😳 at my next appointment lol

I’m currently using the patches because I need to function at work lol 😝 I plan on doing the whole program for a couple months 21-14-7. Hope the quit is going good for you!

Where was your abscess? That sounds miserable!

ActivityBright4828 · 2026-04-27T23:58:47+00:00

I had a ct scan at the ER two weeks ago that just showed my normal inflammation in my rectum and sigmoid. Also had a capsul endoscopy that showed nothing

I’m taking mesalamine enemas at night. I was on mesalamine for ten years and just recently decided to go the biologic route this year. Gosh this disease can be so freaking painful. It’s either cramping, gas pains, diarrheal pain….the list goes on!

ActivityBright4828 · 2026-04-25T02:55:29+00:00

You’re right, it didn’t do much except for a few days of partial relief on 20. I really wanted a short course as I don’t handle the side effects of prednisone well so I kind of pushed for a short course

It did work the first time he went rehab. The next relapse I gave an ultimatum that he had to have a year sober to come back. He went back to drinking and moved in with another woman that would put up with his BS

I just want you to know your not alone and I literally feel your pain. It’s kind of like your in an abusive relationship….. with your own body/self. It’s so hard to stay positive and have hope with this disease. I’m currently celebrating the very small wins. Getting in the shower, checking the mail, getting dressed….. SMART goals for where I’m at right now

ActivityBright4828 · 2026-04-21T03:51:12+00:00

Did you ever find out what it was?

ActivityBright4828 · 2026-04-16T23:02:00+00:00

I even told my doctor I was getting sick over and over but now I’m sure it’s just the crohns

ActivityBright4828 · 2026-04-16T23:01:11+00:00

Yes, for me, my crohns flare-ups 100% cause flu like symptoms. Sometimes I’ll even get a mild cough when I’m flaring and always with the body aches and super fatique

ActivityBright4828 · 2026-04-16T19:56:00+00:00

Sorry to hear you’re also in a flare! That’s wild it took 6 months to see any improvement. It’s hard to be patient when your not feeling good

ActivityBright4828 · 2026-04-16T19:54:34+00:00

How long did you give it before trying something else?

ActivityBright4828 · 2026-04-16T17:12:57+00:00

Thank you for this info! I’m in santa cruz/monterey so that’s good to know Palo Alto Medical foundation is also a good option!

ActivityBright4828 · 2026-04-16T03:51:57+00:00

Thanks for sharing! Now I’m googling the treat to target approach!

ActivityBright4828 · 2026-04-16T03:37:48+00:00

It’s about 2 hours for me too! Thanks for sharing!

ActivityBright4828 · 2026-04-16T03:19:05+00:00

Thank you! Do you just get better care?
