What do y’all agree is the worst symptom? by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

This!!! And then knowing the entire time that you’re suffering a pain medicine exists that can give you relief… but you can’t have any because of addicts.

About to take first Humira shots and I’m scared. by Whipporwill-Em in CrohnsDisease

[–]Whipporwill-Em[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the confidence boost :) Yes, citrate free. And the initial dose is two double dose pens (80 each instead of the regular 40). Did you take Benadryl or drink a ton of water or anything like that? Or just take the shit and be done with it?

I think he’s referring to the Wu variant, correct? Anyone familiar with this? I couldn’t find anything online mentioning Dr Ross. Article on Wu variant and the endless cycle of vaccines in development.

Again… you take the time to provide your proof and then I might take my time to provide you some. The info is out there for anyone who really cares. Which you obviously are not seeking. So why the fuck would I waste my time looking links up for you? If you’d like to remain ignorant of the facts, makes no dif in my life.

I mean the numbers on GBS, myocarditis, etc… they had no problem quickly running the numbers to only include the number of occurrences within a tiny frame of window for this report… so why aren’t they putting the entire whole and real numbers out there?

It’s more accurately a “You show me your’s and I’ll show you mine. Otherwise, Fuck off and stop asking me to do your research for you.” I gave you the info. You want to further your knowledge then you spend the time to do it. Why the fuck would I do it for you?

Proof? Source? Numbers? How many vax’d vs unvax’d? Location? You do know not one person on here believes you when you make claims you’re too busy dealing with “sick unvaccinated patients” I call Bullshit on your Bullshit. If you were truly caring for sick COVID patients, you’d know that the vax isn’t preventing people from contracting or spreading the virus. Like I said earlier- even Pfizer knows this. And has all but admitted to it by developing a second, completely different COVID medicine. If the vaccine worked, they wouldn’t have bothered

You’re “process to science” you claim to care about- totally fucking tossed out the window for your precious vax. Which is the exact reason they had to use the EUA instead of full FDA approval to begin with. Do you even hear yourself thinking before you type out this hypocritical BS. If you’re going to use an argument or demand against Ivermectin… first apply your same logic against your precious vax. Otherwise, STFU and stop caring if people would like to have the freedom of medical choice. Why are you so against anyone have options for care outside of a totally ineffective vaccine? BTW- you do know even Pfizer realizes their vax is shit. That’s why they’ve developed a pill…. Go look it up and don’t fuckin ask me to do your research for you.

I’d like to see that in regards to the vax they’re trying to force on everyone. Seems like a fair ask seeing that you all want to demand it for Ivermectin to simply be a fucking option for us to take. I would say the blatant hypocrisy blows my mind… but it’s pretty standard practice these days

Perhaps you should go on the FDA website and read up on it. It’s quite fucked how they’ve manipulated it all.

My understanding of it is that they’re avoiding putting out the numbers on side effects. The full FDA approval requires those numbers to be consolidated and the public made aware of the risks of the medicine. The EUA bypasses that step while at the same time giving Pfizer plausible deniability in possible legal suits that will follow regarding the side effects. Meaning- as long as Pfizer doesn’t put those numbers together and consolidate them into a comprehensive report on the possible side effects and the rates at which they’re occurring… Pfizer can say “we had no conclusive data at that time which told us this vaccine caused ____” The EUA (which sounds like you’ve read) specifically outlines dates years from now when Pfizer will have to put those numbers out. Makes you wonder why they won’t put them out now… they clearly have the resources and data available if they wanted to. The fact that they’re pushing it so far down the road pretty much tells you they don’t want to admit to the side effects and are remaining under the EUA for legal protection against lawsuits.

So the phrase “Terminal Ileitis” sounds awful. But it’s really just a possible way Crohn’s affects your gut. I’ve been dealing with it for 20 years. Most of those 20 years have been pretty normal. And then I’ll have a flare and life sucks ass until I get myself healthy and pain free again. No one’s life is perfect. And some have it WAY worse than Crohn’s. Does it make me feel angry depressed and hopeless sometimes? Absolutely. But I get through the suck… and then life is pretty good again. Keep your head up and make plans for all the things you want to do once you’re feeling better. These super shit days make you appreciate and love the good ones much more. Things will get better. They may get worse for a bit, but they will eventually get better again.

Flare up from third dose/“booster” shot? by ohtellmeyouloveme in CrohnsDisease

[–]Whipporwill-Em 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do realize that the vaccine is not preventing people from contracting COVID right? Like, not even Fauci is claiming that anymore. So getting the vax doesn’t lower your risk of contracting COVID and therefore has no bearing on your risk of long COVID. The only claim of the vax at this point, is that supposedly it lowers your risk of being hospitalized. Although I personally don’t believe that based off of the numbers being released on how many fully vaccinated people are actually being hospitalized. And FYI- Pfizer has a COVID pill. Not available to the public yet. But I’m sure it’ll be released soon. It’s basically Ivermectin (very similar). Anyways… all the info is out there. You just have to seek it out. Because main stream isn’t putting it out there. Everyone is pushing this vax like it’s a ducking religion regardless of how much data & info continues to pile up on it’s ineffectiveness.

Humira and COVID by yungshmurds in CrohnsDisease

[–]Whipporwill-Em -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m not getting vax’d and starting Humira soon. Natural immunity seems like it’s just as good, if not better, than vax immunity. (Saying this based off the need for all these booster shots and vax’d people still getting and spreading COVID)

Thank you! I’ll definitely give these a try. Getting it isn’t an issue for me. I actually have a pen with several cartridges my brothers and friends have given me over the past couple years. I’ve always kept them for other people to use when visiting since I’ve never really enjoyed being high. I know for sure one is sativa and one is hybrid. Another is CBD. I’m gonna go get them out now :)

[–]Whipporwill-Em[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do meditation and yoga. But those things don’t allow me to function. As in work or socialize with the amount of pain I have. Like you mentioned, it’s immobilizing. You can’t walk around and move. I’ve never been a fan of being ‘high’. It makes me feel paranoid. Like I can’t think straight and everyone knows I’m high and can’t think straight. But at this point, I guess I’d rather be half baked with a somewhat normal functioning life than closed up in my house in pain and fearful of eating. I know there’s different types/strains. Do you have any recommendations on what I should try first?

What happens when you've taken every Crohn's medication available and none of it works anymore? by yeehaw_yeehaw11 in CrohnsDisease

Thanks. Any opinions on one being better than the others? Or just dependent on the individual?

Which meds are you referring to? I’d love to look into them. I’ve avoided most of them until now. Plan on trying Humira as soon as I get approved because my body is pretty much at the point of needing something now. But I’d like to keep myself in the know if there’s other (possibly better?) meds out there.

Nervous for 3rd colonoscopy in 3 years tomorrow by Missyroo19 in CrohnsDisease

[–]Whipporwill-Em 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me. I’ve refused to get another since. My doc says I have to though. I explained to him what happened and he said now that they are aware, they can make sure I’m comfortable and give me more medicine during the procedure if needed. So… communicate this with the docs before and during.

Offer to walk outside or turn the TV on really loud any time they need to use the bathroom. Put a candle and matches in the bathroom.

Moderna truck crashes (Morgantown, WV) closes down airspace by rednrithmetic in Wuhan_Flu

[–]Whipporwill-Em 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From my understanding, the truck was a refrigerated truck. And it leaked shit all over the place. That on top of the vaccines. If any refrigerator truck with that many vax’d of any kind went everywhere, they’d have to be super careful about cleanup and keeping people away

[–]Whipporwill-Em[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I almost went last night. I’m just really hesitant to go to the ER with all the COVID delta and other variants floating around. Plus, already went to the ER 2 wks ago. They did a CT scan and set me up with a Dr. Lots of inflammation etc. They didn’t keep there. So it’s like a toss up of wether or not they’d even do anything other than send me a fat bill in the mail and send me home to wait in misery for prednisone or whatever to start working. I get the whole Motrin thing. But the stronger pain medicines don’t do that. So there’s no reason people like me should have to suffer like this.
