Hi everyone. I had been in remission for 4 years. I had a colonoscopy in May that showed no active disease. Wednesday evening, I started to have cramps. By midnight, the cramps were unbearable, so my husband drove me to the ER. The CT showed massive inflammation that was causing a partial obstruction. I'm so upset. My life was finally going great, disease in remission, a job I enjoy, lots of family commitments that I was looking forward to. Now I have to deal with this, and I'm so hoping to get it under control and back to remission. However, every time I've ever come out of remission, it ended up with disease that only was controlled by surgery. I've tried most of the drugs to control Crohn's but either they didn't help me, or I developed serious side effects.
Are there relatively new treatments that are effective? CBD oil is legal in my state, but because of federal rules and my job, I can't take it.
