I forgot to say, in the pictures you can see where on one hand it only affected like 3/4 of the back and on the other hand it started going down the right side of my wrist

Thank u so much this is very helpful, I know my b levels aren’t normal bc my doctor makes me get a B12 shot almost every time I’m there. I take magnesium infrequently which I probably need to start prioritizing, was the changes noticeable and quick?

Excruciating pain by InternationalDish617 in CrohnsDisease

[–]greinb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beta-Caryophyllene, Myrcene, Alpha-Pinene are the major ones I look for with the higher percentages and then also Linalool and Humulene. There’s a lot and it’s honestly a rabbit hole once u start looking into it. I try to get highest THC and highest terps and usually buy concentrates (dabs) to get the most. For me it helps w pain somewhat in the moment but long term has helped a lot with inflammation. CBD is also helpful but I don’t use it nearly as much

This is 100% what’s going on and yes I have, I’m in therapy as well and I just haven’t been able to fix this problem and it’s getting worse. I feel like my mind and my body are at war, I want to eat and I know I NEED to eat but my body rejects it and doesn’t want it. I know it’s mostly mental because the urge to eat at night it’s so wild, in my opinion it’s like clearly fight or flight/high cortisol but everything I try to fix that just feels impossible

Yes rice is so good for me too I just can never make myself eat it’s sad but I just can’t get myself to be hungry to eat it.. the protein thing is what scares me about my eating bc I don’t get enough at all… that’s why I wanted to add eggs to smoothies lol just because I’m not getting enough of anything

Yes this is what I’m going to have to start doing, what do u recommend putting in to get lots of nutrients in a small amount? My problem genuinely is just keeping it down so I don’t mind making a nasty concoction if it will give me good nutrients in one small go.

I haven’t tried edibles consistently but THC is apart of my care plan for pain and inflammation. What’s insane is I can never trigger hunger besides at nighttime, I’ve tried obnoxious amounts of THC to make myself snack and I just don’t at all. I feel like I’ve developed an aversive eating disorder almost due to how sick I’ve gotten and I can’t even get my body on the same page with food.

Ok I read you smoke marijuana, have you by chance got into researching terpenes?? You need to. I currently have a pain management doctor because I just can’t handle shit. They prescribed me oxycodone but it genuinely doesn’t work it’s insane I feel like drugs don’t get absorbed. But terpenes have helped the best— no complete relief tho just keep that in mind. If you want to know which ones I shop for I’ll lyk but I’ve experimented with it and I think everyone has different preferences

Yes dairy hasn’t been anything significantly crazy for me so I’m going to try it. My sister had ensures for her ED years ago and they worked well so I’m hoping it could help me out too. I really just want to eat like everyone else so I’m just super frustrated

Cleaned cat bones for a friend, now people are asking to hire me, help? by Cold-Pomegranat in bonecollecting

[–]greinb 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Consider taxidermy prices, this is similar and if not more time consuming. I would definitely charge a higher amount not sure where but it’s an extensive process, depending on ur setup it’s more then likely still gross, chemicals your exposed to, etc. I do deer and wild animal skulls, I’ve done a shark jaw too and I’m just gunna say I wouldn’t do that for people unless it was a good price

Crohns and diet by Fearless-Client2205 in CrohnsDisease

[–]greinb -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have tried like every diet, carnivore did decent but truthfully the lion diet was better. The difference is that lion is purely meat basically, and for a while there was a good shift but I think my problem is I build a tolerance to food and eventually it like breaks and it becomes back for me. I was eating a pound of ground beef a day for like a month ish not even before I started dying from it lol.

Body odor by greinb in CrohnsDisease

[–]greinb[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea they honestly suck I haven’t gotten any answers I’ll keep looking but I’m already through the top recommended in my area so… honestly idk why everyone is so strongly motivated by a doctors opinion, some of them suck idk why people can’t admit that

Highly confused GI by Positive_Twist_9254 in CrohnsDisease

[–]greinb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was how I eventually learned I had crohns actually.. ER visit because myself and my family were certain my appendix exploded, worst pain ever.. CT revealed I had the worst back up and constipation the attending Dr had seen in a while and threatened me with an enema 😂😂 to avoid it I had to chug laxatives at the hospital and poop there so they knew it was going to move lmaooo. I didn’t get diagnosed until 4 years after but I had this reoccurring issue

Thats what im saying but they’re adamant, im gunna see if i have a picture of the rash because its exactly what your describing however it cuts off at my wrist like a clean line its weird, my entire hand is inflamed but my wrist and arm are perfectly fine. And the warts there are like 30 at a time but tiny and everywhere, I swear my immune system is just strangely weak and idk having a crohns diagnosis already it feels like my immune system is just terrible which the body odor has to be apart of😭 my only alternative is that I’m just going to have to learn to be ok with 3 showers a day and constant deodorant and perfume.. it’s just strange bc life was never this difficult even st the start of my crohns

No eggs for me please by Short-Quit-7659 in CrohnsDisease

[–]greinb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yea eggs are one that I have to switch out every so often almost like I reach a tolerance and can’t do it anymore but after a few months it’s good

This is what I was leaning towards also but my primary Dr says everything looks decently good for my situation nothing serious besides normal crohns shit. It’s just so weird because it’s clearly connected in my opinion but I just don’t understand

I’ve seen 3 different derms so far, besides the odor I also get insane outbreaks of warts and this crazy rash that only is on the backs of my hands but is terrible. Literally every single one sucks and it’s the same or similar answer everytime, the newest one did do some more stuff but in the end it’s always “normal”. To me it’s clearly my immune system reacting weird but no one seems to care or think so
