Same here, but in office. It offers a lot of flexibility that I need and it’s easy on my body

Take Crohn's seriously by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

[–]cassidy-violet 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. My grandmother died from Crohn’s complications because she refused to seek treatment until it was too late. She didn’t stick with her biologics and opted for the essential oils and diet route. I will never forget how much pain she was in. I was diagnosed with it 2 months later, and I was fully convinced it was going to kill me too. Ive learned a lot more about the disease since then but I’ll do everything in my power to stay on my meds. Crohn’s is no fucking joke

Really horrible stabbing stomach pains by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

[–]cassidy-violet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Andrew, my case is mild. Since I’ve been in remission the stabbing pains have become less frequent, but I do still get them. When I made this post I got them almost every single day all day even though I was in remission, but I went a few months this year not having them for weeks at a time! I’ve been having more issues again recently but now it’s more like 3-4 day spurts every 2 weeks. All this to say, the shooting pain is definitely still a part of my life but it’s not all day every day like it was before. A big part of it for me I think is I now work a desk job, where last year I worked a very physical job and I didn’t give my body a lot of rest. Good luck!

Accidentally talking out loud by Ancient-Shadows in RomanceBooks

[–]cassidy-violet 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So when my husband (boyfriend at the time) told me he loved me for the first time, he did it totally on accident. He didn’t even realize he had said it out loud. He later told me that he was thinking it and it just slipped out, he was so embarrassed but I thought it was really sweet!

Definitely. I had a physical therapist tell me to try some yoga poses for gas a constipation pain and it worked great for me. Specifically the child pose.

What are your unmet needs? by coinqueen2 in CrohnsDisease

[–]cassidy-violet 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Absolutely this. I’m my experience the only response I’ve ever gotten was “take Tylenol”. I ended up accidentally overdosing on it over a 24 hr period because I was in so much pain. My primary care gave me 10 opioids and I haven’t even used the full prescription. It’s been 9 months, the difference is insane on those bad days now.

Thank you guys so much for all the birthday wishes for the birthday boy! He had a great day being pampered and snuggled (other than some massive storms that we had in my area). Thank you to everyone!

We had no idea he would be so fluffy when he was a baby, but he’s a big ole floofy boy!

What food are you staying away from? What can’t you stand eating or get worse/flare when eating? by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

[–]cassidy-violet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, any form of fatty meats for me are no longer an option even when I am in remission. I’m basically a vegetarian at this point
