Hi everyone.
My name is Shelbe, I am 23 years old and I was diagnosed with Crohn's in September of 2012. It's been all down hill from there.
I've been on Mezavant for a long time and it really hates me.
I'm currently having the worst flare up I've ever gone through - and it's been lasting for over a month now. I've been to the emergency but they didn't care (the health care system in Nova Scotia is bull.) Now I'm waiting to be put on Humira but I am so poor and it costs so much. I work full time in a terrible call centre and it's causing so much stress for me. I haven't been able to eat or drink or sleep and it's making me weak and I'm having convulsions on the toilet. There's also a LOT of blood happening.
A girl I'm speaking with has told me that she used essential oils and is currently in remission for her Crohn's. This is something I am 100% looking into as I can't deal with this anymore.
On top of the Crohn's, I also suffer from depression, hallucinations, anxiety and paranoia (I'm seeing psychotherapist) and I had my thyroid out because I was diagnosed with cancer in 2011.
My life has been nothing but hell since I graduated in 2011 and I need all the support and help I can get.
Thank you, <3.
