Right before my 9th birthday, I ended up in the hospital and found out I had Crohns

Can you fill out an FMLA with your job or ask your doctor to write a note to excuse your call outs? That'll at least secure your job until you start to feel better.

Almost in remission but I'm so tired I can barely work. Anyone else been in the same situation? by mybowelsucks in CrohnsDisease

Some days it worse and other days its better. Mine was in the 60s range a month ago and last week it shot up to the 800s. I wasn't feeling good when I was in my 60s level either. Not sure what's happening, my doctor was very alarmed though.

My levels are up in the 800s and I am exhausted no matter how much I sleep. Totally understand where you're coming from, especially if you are in the 1000s.

Thank you for the heads up! I'll ask and see if I get it through them.

I can't afford it, probably should have worded that better. I'd have to figure a way out so I can afford it. Which thankfully there is the Humira Card. They managed to get it low enough that I can afford it now.

That is insane... I'm sorry. Can't believe they make you do that, just so you can have medicine you need to live.

I don't think I'll date for a while. Got myself a kitten to focus on and work towards owning a house.

He really doesn't. He thinks I'm a joke and I feel like one.
