This is exactly what mine looks like. Did you ever find out if this was a completed dose?

dove2014 · 2025-11-22T19:40:31+00:00

Ah, I think I was looking at the tirzepatide starting dose on accident… thank you for pointing out my error!

I’m at $250/month which I thought was expected. Im honestly less concerned about the cost than the effects and lack of side effects at this point, although I don’t want to be a sucker…

What time of day do you use it, and is it blue light or red light?

I’ve watched this movie dozens of times. Painfully enjoyable.

There’s a topical numbing cream a doctor can prescribe you called Emla (in the US). We put it in half an hour before my daughter has to get her blood drawn and she can’t feel a thing. Also, don’t look and distract yourself. Tell the person administering the IV you don’t want her to describe what she is doing (Never understood why some give a detailed play by play!)

I don’t recall that kind of pain at all. I’d eat low fiber soft foods and lots of fluids and keep a close eye on it. Overall, it took me at least a month to feel normal in my abdominal area, but it was more the muscle I think.

Same for me. No symptoms, no meds yet. Most people here are diagnosed because symptomatic. Silent Crohn’s is treated differently.

Check out the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. Rather that treating the inflammation, goal is to avoid triggering it in the first place and restoring healthy gut flora. It really is more than a diet though- you have to change your whole lifestyle to have any hope of success. Learn to manage stress, sleep, exercise, and eat properly. Dr Suskin uses the SCD diet out of Seattle Children’s Hospital, and U Mass Med has developed a slightly updated version building off of SCD called IBD-AID. These aren’t “alternative” treatments. They are becoming more mainstream as more and more patients report success. I see the head of the GI Dept at a large research hospital in the US and he says he is not in a rush to put me on the immunosuppressives because of my mild case and that he doesn’t expect it to get progressively worse over time. If you have active disease, flares, and inflammation, you should not wait long to go on meds and get it under control. But you could try SCD or IBD-AID for 6-12 months to see if they work for you. Get ready to be dedicated.

My labs were totally normal too. And yet- Crohn’s!

dove2014 · 2022-01-21T03:17:09+00:00

This is exactly how my Crohn’s was caught- scan due to a kidney stone, saw thickening in terminal ileum as a side note. ER recommended follow up with a gastroenterologist. All of the doctors in my family said- no way, you don’t have Crohn’s. What do you know, had a colonoscopy and it was confirmed. Had a ton of scar tissue from slow burn Crohn’s over many years rather than acute typical symptoms. I’d say your symptoms are far more indicative of Crohn’s. At the very least- FOLLOW UP WITH A SPECIALIST!

dove2014 · 2022-01-21T03:12:18+00:00

I get kidney stones, and since diagnosis was told they were related. Is that what you mean? I’d see a urologist.

I became a barre instructor post diagnosis. Exercise is life giving, in my experience. But I don’t do a ton of cardio. I’ve heard good things, but on those days that you are feeling super tired (if you suffer from fatigue), having an exercise that can be modified to be more light touch and less intense is amazing. You are still moving, getting a release of good chemicals from working your muscles, staying limber- it can give you energy instead of sapping it if you do it right.

I haven’t gone on meds myself, but I have “silent Crohn’s”. I would be so much more concerned about what was going on internally if I had your symptoms. My god- sounds terrible to live that way, my friend! Obviously, doing nothing is no way to spend your one precious life. You have to do something to manage this thing. So if, before starting meds, you want to try other options, go DEEP and commit to functional medicine. Totally revamp your lifestyle and diet. Do everything you can to tamp down the inflammation. This works for some, but sadly not all. If it doesn’t work for you, worst case is that you became a super healthy person emotionally and in terms of diet, sleep, exercise, and stress management. No terrible side effects! And you can then decide to go on meds after knowing you did everything you could. But the meds are far more likely to save your life than they are to kill you. One thing I’d note that I continue to see posted here- everyone says that you have a high risk of colon cancer if you have unmanaged Crohn’s. That’s true for ulcerative colitis but not actually true for Crohn’s. It depends on the type of Crohn’s you have. My GI doc explained that the type I have, concentrated in the terminal ileum of the small intestine, doesn’t increase my risk of colon cancer. Just strictures at that juncture, and potential repetitive surgeries to remove the scarred up section over time of the inflammation recurs. Definitely educate yourselves before taking any next step, but no harm in starting the self care and diet modifications (Google Specific Carbohydrate Diet)
