Hiya would like to introuduce myself to you all!!my names Stacey,I was diagnosed with Crohn's in 2004 when I was 18,it was something I had never heard off and information was very small back then.in 2009 a year after my daughter was born I had a small bowel resection operation and have been on azathioprine and colestyramine since along with my 3 monthly B12 injections!!its been a long journey and a struggle to fit Crohn's into my every day life but I have managed to do so,I find it hard to explain to people what Crohn's is without it sounding like I have diarrohea all the time!!!!I am married with 2 beautiful children!

Welcome to the forum, Stacey!
Are you in remission? It sounds as if you're doing well! That's great.
Hopefully you'll be able to contribute a lot of help and advice around the forum.
I hope things continue to go well for you!
