Living With Crohn’s Disease: 1 Woman Shares Her Struggle | TODAY Original

[@haveaday1812]

I’m a former soldier, athlete, avid surfer. Self employed, dad, husband, just an all around active, healthy 36 year old. Crohns hit me like a train out of nowhere this year. I’ve survived with wounds from war, bad injuries from spots. You name it. This disease has me in torture like I’ve never known. Total helplessness, like a slave to the pain that your own body is causing. Take it from me, I know your pain. I’m at the height of my life, and this disease side swiped me.

[@cristinagray6798]

maybe sir u had it now b'coz of what's ur lifestyle before now its coming out as u age,like here in our country Philippines a saying that if u gone to alcohol w/ out food before u will suffer ,stomach ache or ulcer its like karma what we done when we were younger as we go older it will comes out late like if we dont have right diet when younger all junkfood are health will suffer malnouries or diabetic

As an 8 month pregnant soon to be mother, one of my biggest worries is that my future son will develop Crohn’s as well. I am hoping that over the next few years’ technology can help prevent the effects. Seems like the space is already working on something for young children (I remember reading about a clinic trial at Soligenix for pediatric crohns) I am hopeful there will soon be a cure.

The pain is indescribable, I've had flare ups that are so intensely painful I can only describe it as having a gunshot to the stomach, and there's a knife going into the gunshot and twisting for 7 hours or more.

I was diagnosed when I was 11. I had part of my colon removed twice. I’m 33 now. No one really understands what I’m suffering through because on the outside I look normal enough. I’ve pushed away so many friends and relationships over the years and have settled in on the introvert life . I’m just a drag because I’m usually feeling ill and they don’t want to deal with or understand it. I just tell people I’m fine even though I’m feeling terrible just to avoid their sympathy. The psychological aspects are real. I feel I’ve lost out on so much over the years because of just how weak it’s made me. Healthy people should cherish that they don’t have to ever understand what it’s like. I wish I knew. That said I consider the success that I’ve had in my life an extra achievement having gotten where I am with the disease. Never give up or underestimate what you can do despite the things in life trying to hold you back. Your will to strive to greatness will prevail

It's very tough to deal with this condition and for others to understand what you go through day to day. I was diagnosed 1 year ago. Prior to diagnosis I was a new, aspiring mechanical engineer. Life was put on halt since being diagnosed. In and out of ER and hospitalization +8 times already. The pain is at times unbearable. It makes you want to crawl into bed most of the day. The noises of unwanted gut movement is embarrassing. Tried the Remicade. Now on Stelara and having to get back on prednisone as the new med starting to be less effective for me. Diet now limited with a restriction from high in fiber foods such as leafy veggies. I occasionally mix blended kale and spinach into non dairy soups to get the nutrients that veggies offers without having to digest whole leafy plants which are stressful for constricted small intestines. Eat grilled or steamed fish, eggs, or soft rotisserie chicken for protein. Cut the red meats to a bare minimum and only when craving. Cut out fried foods. Limit sweets if you can. Thankful to God I was able to qualify for state and county health insurance. 98% of all medical costs are covered!! Being out of work this is a real life saver. Think of this, each hospital visit averages $10k and each dose of Stelara costs $22k!! All covered by medi-cal (aka medi-caid). Even good private insurance will cover a bulk of the costs, but there are co-pays to meet that can add up real quick. County insurance has no co pays!! Very thankful for this program and am willing to continue the fight to recovery. Have many more years to look forward to including a future family to have of my own one day, and to continue pursuing a career I barely got my feet into. I hate having to depend on financial assistance given that I was a really active and abled person who went to the gym 4 days a week, hiked, snowboarded, had a full time job, had a social life, ate very well, traveled and wanted to do more travelling having a solid stream of income that was starting to come in. Life is not done until I accomplish those items off of my bucket list. They can take the years away from me, but they cannot stop my drive towards success and my love for God.

@Phillip Aubin Hello there. That's very interesting to hear about the medical system in Europe. I was always under the impression that their universal health Care system would be far superior than the healthcare system that we have here in america. Although that does seems to makes sense that European governments would try to cut back cost in any way if they are paying for the majority of the health care bills. Just a little update on my situation, I am now on my second trial of medication therapy. The medication they have me on is called Stelara. it is an unsanely expensive medication for those who do not have any insurance at all. The retail value of each dose is around $20,000! I'm thankful that because of my condition, I am unable to hold a steady job. Therefore I qualify for county Medicare which pays 100% for this medication. I can never thank God enough for that. The medication worked wonderful the first four months, however I am on my seventh month now and it seems to be losing its effectiveness. Hopefully the doctors can adjust some things to make it effective 99% again

I'm a 32 year old man and I was getting teary just listening to you. I'm currently going through a flare up, it started maybe 30 hours ago. I'm tired, hungry, sleepy and in pain. I can't sleep well because of the pain and, currently, even drinking water causes movement and it hurts. My job is quite stressful, I currently work over 60 hours a week. I'm very reluctant to get medical help because of co-pays, last time I went to the hospital for a flare up it cost me $4000 in copays, I even used Uber to dodge the ambulance fees. I feel like I can't leave my job because I need that money for emergencies. And I feel like my Humira treatment isn't working as well anymore since I've been getting flare ups more and more often but seeking other treatments is very costly and time consuming. I feel like I'm against the wall and my only solution is to just suffer every now and then. Thank you for your words and efforts to spread awareness. I hope one day I get better quality of life for me and my family. And ideally less pain.

20 years old here, also very big into law. Since November 8th 2021, I had a terrible sudden sickly feeling. I was always active and energetic, just like this young lady. I've had constant, terrible, stomach cramps since that day. I've cut out most gluten, lactose, fast food, fried foods, beef, have taken medicines, took bacteria tests, stomach ulcer tests, blood work, CAT scans, etc. and all came back great while my better diet only helps a little. In about a month I will have an endoscopy and colonoscopy done, and I have to say that I am anxious and really depressed from all this. I've lost 15 lbs so far, that I didn't need to lose, and that just adds onto my mental state within itself. I played sports all my life, was 6'3 175lbs before getting sick, and it was SO sudden. I'm scared that I might have either Crohn's or Celiac disease. And I should probably stay off of the internet because it only makes my mental health worse, but this video made me cry because 1: if I do have Crohn's, I must say it's one of the worst things ever. And 2: I hate that anybody has to go through this. I start college again in a few weeks, so pray for me haha. For anyone who has this disease though, I wish you the best and to have a good day

Hey! 20 here as well. I have been having CT scans and blood tests for over 3 months now. I have lost 15 kgs too(I don't know how much it is in lbs, I'm from India lol). I went through a colonoscopy right on the first week of January and might have to do an endoscopy soon(not sure). I have been depressed and anxious as well for the entire 2021. My problems started in February last year and is still on going. I hate it as much as you do. My college is still online which makes me way more depressed every day. It is a bad disease. It is so hard to even convince yourself that everything you love to eat is probably forever gone from your life. However, it feels great when other people who go through the same thing share the experiences with you. I felt great knowing that there is someone equally worried like me. And I hope you feel great knowing that i understand your pain, and that even though I am the most pessimist person in the world, both of us will get better so soon. ~Ayana, India (My account says anonymous, but I want you to know the name so that you don't feel alone at all.

I was 14 when diagnosed. I was lucky, since my family doctor, after I lost almost 60 pounds in 5 months, suspected immediately and sent me to a gastroenterologyst that diagnosed me in less than a week. Since then I've been basically in symbiosys with my town's hospital, because in my unlucyness I'm born and live in a town with one of the best hospital of my country, therefore I go there at least one or two times every month for exams and check-ups. By now I've tried every medicine possible. I've never had surgery, because my CD affects different parts of the dygestive tract and therefore to remove the sick parts would be useless. But I've talked through socials with other people with CD, and I know to be lucky also because I'm at university, while other people had to drop out of high school since they couldn't keep up, cause the disease. In less than a year I'll become a doctor. Not a gastroentherologist, because it's not intersting enough to me, but my experience with a chronic disease will always help me dealing with patients.

“I am not this disease, this is not me.” I tell myself this at least once a day if I can remember. I’ve had Crohn’s since I was 12-13 and I’m almost 23 now. My life kind of stopped when it happened, I continued and am now here at this point. What they don’t stress enough is having knowledge of the disease and the things it does to your brain. When your gut (second brain) is compromised or anywhere in your body is, it sends signals to your brain that are mixed and wrong. So if your body is trying to destroy itself, imagine what’s happening inside the mind. Your quality of life is now a constant battle or struggle as it can be like that for many things. I wish I was better educated as a child on having a set schedule and room to mess around while still coming back to my safety net of a schedule. I used to have more drive to pursue anything at all, now I don’t know who I am and have no motivation or drive due to confusion from the disease, trauma, hunger, pain. I take one step forward and am automatically moved 5 steps back. I can’t think straight and can’t remember why I’m here a lot of days. It’s blinding and medicines are making me nervous about the effects they have on my body, mind, and life. My life is only about distractions and even when I’m surrounded by people, I am alone and can’t focus enough to pursue anything.

Good luck, you’re completely right and i resonated with this a lot as a 28 year old. Try to implement exercising in small doses whenever you can, it’s one of the only things other than kefir and probiotics that helps calm my mind throughout various flare ups.

Remove dairy and gluten from your diet . Exercise and meditate. Try turmeric 1/8 teaspoon in a glass of water every day.

I just got diagnosed with severe Crohn’s disease after suffering for a year and going through tons of test and then dealt with a blockage on my own that the ER missed twice when went there In agony !!!! It was the worst 3 days of my life . I just started a aggressive treatment with humira and methotrexate and that in itself is ruff I got sick at first had to try and work myself through it and give it a chance . So now I’m handling it pretty good and I’m chilling in pain yet waiting to see if it starts to work here soon . They ( Docs ) say it takes a couple months for it to start to work so I’m praying it does . Be nice to find a blog or a website where I can communicate with people who went through this and can give pointers out as far as diet and things to expect . God bless y’all

Sh Lewis today ( 1/30/2022) I saw your comment. I believe you are 17 now. Hope you have got better since there are lots of information re Crohn disease by now. For me, cutting flour and dairy from my diet was a great help.

[@keyreacts6879]

the pains are the worst thing in the world because for me laying down made it hurt so i would have to move around but that would make it hurt too and if you tried to go to the bathroom it would hurt and i was diagnosed at 16 and im 17 now

[@tyyt2146]

Key Reacts I got diagnosed last June and I’m 19 now. Laying on my stomach helps it if it gets really bad. Also get a heat pad and put it on your hurt area. Heat is good for the pain. Make sure to stay away from seeds, corn, popcorn, certain vegetables, raw fruit with skin on it and spicy foods those are worst triggers for most people. Also anything that is hard to digest can make it worse. Mashed potatoes are good and apple sauce all with no skin. I’m actually on a feeding tube now because inflectra/remicade didn’t work that well for me

[@keyreacts6879]

Ty YT sorry to hear that and yeah i stay away from spicy foods and thanks for the tips and im lactose intolerant

[@tyyt2146]

Key Reacts I’ve never been able to hold down milk well or chocolate milk and they tested if I was lactose intolerant and I am not. I think the enzyme is still effected with people with Crohn’s despite not actually being lactose intolerant I’ve heard many people say the same. Not denying the fact you could also be lactose intolerant. Stay strong 💪

please take time to read this, it might help you my husband suffered from crohn's disease almost all his life and i can tell you that its really terrible, watching him get lean and pale worried me the more, he lost appetite, he was always and was unable to go to work again,he kept having sores in his mouth and the constant pain was making the situation worse. we kept going from one gastroenterologist to another, they were not helping the situation, they kept giving us different drugs and it was making it worse,they kept increasing the dosage, in 2016 when i went to cvs pharmacy to go and get another drugs for him, that was were i heard about dr folonsho a herbal doctor, who specialises in using natural roots and herbs to treat diseases and chronic pain. at first i was in doubt, because we have tried many options that were not helping and all the doctors we came across told us that there was no cure, and i believed, so i contacted this herbal doctor and he said he could help my husband,after i told him my problem, he said he has a herbal remedy that can heal my husband and reverse this illness completely and he will be back to his normal state of health, not having many alternatives anymore i requested for the herbal remedy,because the situation was getting worse, after using the medicine for about 3 weeks there was great improvement, and my husband was getting back to his normal self, its been 4 years now and my husband is still strong as ever, all thanks to dr folonsho, and may GOD continue to bless you, so if you are still sufferring from this disease kindly contact dr folonsho today either through email [e-mail] or via whats app [phone] or you can check out his website drfolonshoherbalhome.simdif. com/ and you will be glad you did, i wouldn't want someone to experience what my husband experienced

[@MohamedBinAboAlYazid]

The problem of Crohn's is the blood. I treated it through the blood. I took herbs from us from Egypt. I bought it. It was called a cholesterol solvent and a liver fat solvent. I was cured of Crohn's. It simply means the colon is not the actual problem. The whole story is blood. recover.....

[@BLAZE45]

I think I have this and I. I have been to the ER several times. For the same symptoms. Nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, tremors, burning sensation in chest and stomach, diarrhea, no appite, depression, extreme fatigue etc. Today after going to the ER it was noted that my white blood cells are low extremely low. My doctor mentioned that it could be several things including Crohn's disease but he can't diagnose it because he is not a GI doctor but that's what the speculation is.

Hi Nicole! I’ve been having left-sided ulcerative colitis since I was 19. The good news is that remission is possible, whether you have Crohn’s or colitis, and you might be able to include some of your favorite foods back into your diet again. It’s good to know what will upset your stomach and try to avoid those things as much as possible, but the occasional indulgence should be fine. If Crohn’s and colitis could be fixed with diet alone, we would have eliminated these diseases along time ago. You’re probably 31 right now but I’m 28 like you were when you made the video. I will who dealt with a few friends during college, and I recently had a flareup when I started my job in the human resource field. I don’t think they’ve ever been as bad as the flareups that you’ve had but I understand. Take care!

[@brooklynnfox-renwick6400]

My mom has crohn’s and her mom has IBS. I’ve dealt with severe abdominal pain and constant diarrhea for most of my life and it’s progressively gotten worse this year. I’ve done countless blood samples and stool samples as well as the hydrogen breath test but still no culprit for the problem. I but was supposed to get an endoscopy and colonoscopy last year but my appointment got cancelled. My moms gastroenterologist has said they’d take me as a patient and my family doctor has referred me to them. Hoping for the best and to finally understand what’s wrong with body.

Do anyone still doubt natural herbs? I've seen the great importance of natural herbs and the wonderful work they have done in people's lives. I wonder why people still spend their money on surgery, injections and drugs each time they are sick. Natural herbs can cure all kinds of illness including herpes, diabetics, asthma, Cancer, hepatitis, etc. I've seen it with my own eyes. I was cured of ulcerative colitis and my Sister and her Husband were cured of herpes by dr Osemuahu who uses natural herbs to cure different kind of illness. Even Dr. Osemuahu proved to the whole world that natural herbs can cure all diseases and he cured countless of people using natural herbs. I know is hard to believe but am a living testimony. There is no harm in trying herbs. Contact Dr Osemuahu www.drosemuahuherbalhome.com

You should look into the new anti-MAP antibiotic treatments. I've been on it for over 2 years and I've been symptom free for about that long too. Next step might be fecal microbiota transplant and then I could be declared effectively cured. There is also a Crohn's MAP vaccine currently going through trials that could get approved in the next few years.

@@renaewood6127 you need to look into Specific Carbohydrate Diet or SCD. Gluten free, dairy free, no sugar diet! Going back to eating like hundreds of yrs ago when processed foods didn't exist. Only giving your body what it needs! It has been proven to work and many chrons patients have gone into remission for 5, 6, 7 and 10 yrs. There is hope. Chrons medication long term isn't helpful. So many side effects and you are not healing the gut as well as killing the bacteria in your gut. Pls look into it. Most doctors will just laugh at you dismiss you because they don't believe food helps. In actuality it does! There is hope. Don't feel discouraged.

Having a incurable illness like Crohn’s disease isn’t easy at all. I don’t have the incurable illness but I have a friend who has this incurable illness and it’s a heavy cross and a heavy burden. You want to know how he got it? He inherited the illness from his grandfather. And till this day, he still has the illness and he’s on medication. My hope is that he’ll miraculously be cured, healed and recovered.
