Been Gone for a Minute!


So, guess what?

I've been gone for a long time!  I don't even really remember when I actually posted on here.  I have been to hell and back since then!  I tried changing my major, I had the stupid surgery...  Guess what? [2012]  I was still in pain for a long time and was back and forth in the hospital/ER... they suggested that I might have another disease or that I need to see someone [a shrink].  Heifer, please!  lol.  I KNOW MY BODY!  So, they didn't give me any medicine nor try to see anything after they did the colonoscopy and didn't see anything.  So my poop is red and nothing is wrong?  So my intestines are going crazy with pain and nothing is wrong?  So I'm crazy tired all the time and nothing is wrong?  Oh, okay!  -_-  I decided that maybe they were right; maybe I did have another disease that had to do with my reproductive organs... So I had exploratory surgery to see if I had endometriosis.   Guess what?  I DON'T!

[2013] So, I went back to my doctor and told him everything I had done on my end to see if it could be something besides Crohn's.  He was still hesistant that my Crohn's was in an active flare until my mommy spoke up and told him that something is seriously wrong!   PAUSE.  My mommy has to speak up for you to believe me?  I'm 23!  LISTEN TO ME!  So, we scheduled a colonoscopy, which I just had yesterday, and guess what?  They found active Crohn's.



DUH!


Anyways, I start remicade later on this month and it better help!



Soon, I'll be posting on some realistic topics, like how to manage college with Crohn's, using the ADA to your advantage, speaking to your doctor as an adult, etc.

Crohnie Hugs!
