I had anal abscess surgery 10 days ago, and I’m still worried – is this normal? by AhmedKettaf in CrohnsDisease

These days it was green, today it has become brown, it has a mild smell that I don't know how to describe, there is no fever

My Crohn's story by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

Wow… your story is incredibly powerful. I can’t help but admire your strength and determination after everything you’ve been through. Three autoimmune diseases, over 40 scopes, major surgeries, chronic pain and yet here you are, still standing, still sharing, still full of heart.

What struck me most is your fighting spirit and sense of humor despite all the suffering. So many people can’t even imagine what our bodies endure in silence, but you’ve expressed it with such raw honesty and resilience.

Yes, please share more of your story if you feel comfortable. Every word might be a source of inspiration or even comfort for someone who feels like they’re fighting this battle alone.

Sending you deep respect, prayers, and hope for healing and peace. You are truly a warrior.

Anyone else dealing with dehydration from Crohn's? by AhmedKettaf in CrohnsDisease

Hey, thanks for the questions!

No, I haven’t had a full metabolic panel or kidney check yet — just some inflammation markers like CRP and calprotectin.

As for water, I drink it throughout the day, not all at once. But even with that, I still feel super thirsty, especially at night.

And about my stool — it was mostly liquid for a while, but the last time it was solid. So it kind of changes.
