Looking for others with the same issues. I've got a handle on Celiac's, but recently found out about the Crohns. Its a daily struggle and would love any advice.

    I don't have much advice, but I was just diagnosed with Crohn's as well!

    I should say that for me, cutting out grains completely has been fairly easy. I get the occasional craving but over all I eat really good food, with great substitutes, and I don't see it as a loss at all anymore.
