Pleased to hear she is making progress, the crohns symptons do seem to take a while to clear up, fingers crossed they do soon.
Just read about being exposed to chicken pox last week! Just wanted to say that my son (14) had chicken pox, some years ago, then just before christmas developed a rash, got him checked out after thinking he had been bitten by something, and turned out to be shingles!! Have to admit i felt like a bad parent, just didnt give it a thought at all. He felt really miserable, crohns symptons worse, and we had been to hospital just before they came out!!
They appear in clusters, areas such as shoulders, back, chest, torso in general.
I dont want to worry you but just wanted to pass the info on to you. Once he was diagnosed, we had to stop his azathioprine while he took 10 day course of medication, then restarted azathioprine, they also did blood work just as precautionary i believe to check everything out.
Have to admit i dont think the worry will ever stop! Seem to be on guard all the time, watching and waiting! Sadly alot of people dont understand what we as parents are going through, and therefore this group is fab for questions/answers and in general talking about anything and everything.
Really hope she feels better really soon and you get the call back soon you are waiting for x
