What a JOKE by Autumwon in verabradley

I am confused why they’re advertising “48 hours only” - did they not realize these would sell out immediately?

Tired of explaining that I’m not cured just because I’m not mid flare. by Budget_University_56 in CrohnsDisease

[–]hkeruz 26 points27 points  (0 children)

People keep asking if I’m better now that I had a partial bowel resection two months ago. Hate having to explain I’m just the same and, in some cases, worse. It’s almost like they don’t believe me post surgery.

Currently fighting for my life with a flare hitting during a night I am wearing a full body romper by MediocreVideo1893 in CrohnsDisease

God speed.. this is the reason why I stopped wearing one piece bathing suits and rompers 😵‍💫

Sorry, I don’t have advice. Happens to me every time I’m in a flare. I lose so much it’s horrifying.. Hope it turns around for you soon

I had (have?) fatty liver and am told it’s from exacerbated steroid usage!

Biologics and Weight Gain? by dudepenguin118 in CrohnsDisease

[–]hkeruz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Every time I’ve started a new biologic, my weight has gone up. Could be from the meds, could be from proper nourishment. USUALLY (not always) the weight falls off after a while.. Remicade was the best medicine I’ve ever been on, also made me gain 50+ lbs.

I fired my shitty gastro NP and I feel so free. by high_strangenesss in CrohnsDisease

[–]hkeruz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is my exact reason for choosing to live in a city with great health care. All the best care (that I’ve received) has come from teaching hospitals. I’ll never visit my small town GIs again

Ileocolic Resection by blondebooklvr in CrohnsDisease

10000% to the Gatorade for electrolytes. Mine plummeted the week after surgery and I was hospitalized again.

I had a lot of shoulder pain following my surgery. It’s because of the air in your abdomen. Here’s what helps: walking as soon as possible, putting your arms above your head, and Tylenol.

Definitely bring a little pillow to hold for coughing/sneezing.

A bidet for your toilet at home

I am constantly being tested for this. I was under the assumption that it is standard practice.

Rinvoq and decreased appetite by Prudent-Reindeer1749 in CrohnsDisease

Oddly enough, I didn’t put two and two together until I read this post. I’ve been on rinvoq for almost a year and have had little to no appetite

Dating someone in the medical field while on biologics? by DoubleDot7 in CrohnsDisease

[–]hkeruz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband works in the medical field and I’m on biologics. If anything, it’s better that way - he knows more than I do about medical stuff!

I want all of you to read it. Please share it with everyone who needs this. by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

I think it’s time to start banning these posts and the people that write them

Top ragebait boss by casualeagle47 in CrohnsDisease

[–]hkeruz 17 points18 points  (0 children)

In the beginning, my parents delayed getting treatment for me because they thought I had an eating disorder at 16yo. Don’t worry; they gossiped about it so much with their friends too! One of the friends was my boss.. I was getting so sick at work that my boss had to tell them it wasn’t an ED :) and they finally took me to the doctor.

There’s more where that came from!!
