Hi,

Just wondering if anybody else on MFP has Crohns?

Would loves some freinds who have the same illness to see how they cope with life in general, medications etc?

Cheers,
Enny.

    I'll be the the first to raise my hand. MFP was great when I was flaring because I would use the "exercise notes" section to record how I was feeling and I could try to line it up with what I had eaten the previous day. I have moderate to severe Crohn's and have been in remission for a few years now (after 3 or so years of being very sick). I've done several rounds of prednisone, 6 mp, cipro and flagyl, entocort, a handful of other things mixed in there, and now I'm on once a week Humira. If you ever need to chat I've been through most of it, except surgery thankfully.

    :smile: Molly

    PS I can't eat salads or lots of fruits or raw veggies either.

    Friend request sent to you Molly and thank you for replying :smile: I am on fortnightly Humia and daily Imuran also, so I have a very low immune system - even managed to get chicken pox again 2 moths ago! Humira saved me (and before that 3 x Inflixmab infusions) as my body would not get off steroids without it after my partial bowel resection in 2007. Its just nice to know I'm not alone sometimes. :flowerforyou:
