This is me in a nutshell... I am 29 years old, have had severe crohns since I was 5. My childhood is foggy, as I was sick through most of it. I have an ileostomy. I am happily married and teach special education I dabble in the SCD diet and love yoga! My life is pretty great considering the degree of my disease.
What is going on right now...
I just developed a peristomal fistula. Does anyone else have one? How do you keep stool from leaking all over?
I recently switched from Humira (7 years) to Cimzia. I am not sure if it's working? What are your thoughts on Cimzia?
I want/need to gain weight. Any tricks out there?
I'm trying to get caught up on the buzz in the Crohns community... After a 7-ish year remission, through my 20's... I feel a little disconnected with this flare and I am trying to navigate through diets and meds... I'd love to hear what others successes are
