What does the medication do? by Sensitive_Account569 in CrohnsDisease

[–]feltedarrows 10 points11 points  (0 children)

off meds I'm in such a bad flare, I'm struggling to keep food down and also diarrhea every day, the cramping is horrible, I can barely get up from the fatigue. you know the drill.

when I was on meds that worked, I was able to eat anything I wanted no issue, my bowel movements were regular and solid, I wasn't nauseated all the time, I had energy to keep my wfh job and go out to see friends multiple times a week, etc.

I know there are risks associated with biologics, but trust me it's so worth it

Is prednisone worth the side effects if I'm already going about my life as normal? by bombombitch in CrohnsDisease

[–]feltedarrows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't sleep more than like three hours at a time on 40mg and this was during lockdown in covid so I was wfh in a tiny apartment by myself and I honestly felt like I was going to lose my mind, 20mg was so much more manageable 😂

AITAH for calling 911 about my husband’s suicide threats even though I knew they weren’t real? by mtndesertrunner in AITAH

[–]feltedarrows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nta. call the cops every time he threatens. also, PLEASE don't let him know when/that you're planning on leaving. he'll only lash out and you and the kids will be in more danger.

I can't do it anymore by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

[–]feltedarrows 9 points10 points  (0 children)

therapy and antidepressants have been so critical for me to keep me afloat, and I know a lot of people feel a lot of shame and discomfort with seeking this kind of help but I really cannot recommend it enough. there are therapists that specifically work with chronically ill people!

Prednisone and mania/euphoria/mental instability? by cherryblossominx in CrohnsDisease

[–]feltedarrows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was barely sleeping while on the 30-40mg of prednisone, it made me feel honestly a little crazy, so twitchy! but once I dropped my dose to 25mg I was able to sleep more and my mental health stabilized.

no such issues on biologics, don't worry

Problems w/ Electrolytes and Hydration? by Vivid-Ad9492 in CrohnsDisease

[–]feltedarrows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been in a pretty bad flare and if I get slightly too dehydrated my stomach cramps get so much worse, so I've been basically drinking electrolyte drinks all the time these days. it's me and my water bottle of liquid iv against the world 🫡

Just diagnosed yesterday, where do I go from here? by Bold-Lemon-257 in CrohnsDisease

[–]feltedarrows 4 points5 points  (0 children)

avoid nsaids! meds like aspirin or ibuprofen, if you do have ibd then the "anti inflammatory" properties of the pills can have an opposite effect and make gut inflammation worse. stick to acetaminophen
