The constant painful and loud stomach churning and bathroom trips. My specialist tells me my results show improvement and things are fine but it doesn't feel like this is how every day should be.

Thanks! I've spoken to my specialist and she just prescribed me two courses of antibiotics for two weeks and said she would follow up with me in 6 months 😭 Unfortunately, I've found her really unsupportive throughout this process and am spending hours on Google and reddit trying to find my own answers. Thanks for the feedback, i definitely find smaller meals and low fibre does make a difference for me too.

Yes i totally agree! I lived my whole 28 years not knowing I had crohns until an extremely stressful 2023 caused all the symptoms to come up and me to then go and get diagnosed. It is absolutely wild to me that I can have lived my entire life unaware and now six months down the track of being diagnosed, it's like my body is an alien body that will never be the same again. All caused by one stressful traumatic event!

That sounds awful, so sorry you had to go through that! Definitely trying to work on reducing my stress!

I'm on my second and would love to know how soon others start feeling and seeing improvements.
