I was diagnosed at 50. At the time I was very scared I had cancer. I was pretty surprised at the diagnosis but also relieved. I’m 55 now and continuing to move through my journey. I have been on a biologic and now moving to a JAk inhibitor. I’m very lucky my illness hasn’t preventing me from working or other life enjoyments, but it has slowed me down quite a lot (as age also does). My biggest complaint out of this is actually the arthritis!

[@mae9064]

@PBottomPoochies Same here @ diagnosis at 51. On biological meds and yes arthritis an issue also, also hand issues carpal tunnel in both hands and had surgeries. Can I ask what is JAk inhibitor .. ? Will this be instead of biologics meds ? Would appreciate any insights

[@PBottomPoochies]

@@mae9064 JAK inhibitor is just a different kind of med than biologics. The one I was on was Remicade but then my body started to not respond to it. Can’t say exactly how but JAK inhibitors work differently. The one I am on now is Rinvoq which is a pretty new medicine.

Great video as always. My father was diagnosed with bowel cancer 6 years ago at the age of 62 and during treatment, it was found that he had had Crohns all his life. Stomach issues (believed to be ulcers) had effectively ruled his and, by extension, our whole family's social life for decades. Only after his diagnosis and treatment has he had a bit more freedom due to advice on how to manage flare ups. It's wonderful to think a greater awareness helps so many people now.

My dad has UC, his dad had some form of IBD (he wouldn't go to doctors), and I have all of the subjective symptoms of Crohn's, as well as many of the objective symptoms. I am tired constantly (it's nothing for me to sleep 16 hours a day), 80%+ of what I deposit in the restroom is some sort of diarrhea, and I'm in the restroom at least 10 times a day (on a really good day). And yet the gastroenterologists I've seen (here in the US) seem reluctant to diagnose anything at all. It's very frustrating; I dare-say it's literally maddening. I've been sick for 20 years and for the last 4 years it's been bad non-stop. I feel like I might be losing my mind. Most of the time It's like I'm trying to force my thoughts though a thick fog in my head.

I was diagnosed in 2005 and constantly kept getting flare ups. In 2009 i was in hospital with what doctors thought was a flare but turned out it was an Abscess on my bowel that burst while i was in hospital causing my bowel to perforate. Doctors operated and saved my life. I ended up with an ileostomy. I've been pain free ever since

Hiya. I've just turned 26 and have had bowel issues all my life. As a baby they said it was slow bowel and then at 13 all the way till I was 21 I was told it was IBS ass I went from constipation to mixed. Now 26 I've had 5 years of 90% diarrhea or loose stools. Other symptoms I have is yellow ish looking poop that often smells sulphuric or acidic, fatigue, body aches like shoulders, legs, neck etc. Migraines are hit & miss: some months I get the odd few but other months I have one nearly every day. Vertigo and severe daily nausea (on prochlorperazine) diagnosed last year with vit D deficiemcy. My norm is between 3-10+ times a day : more if I'm ill with a bug like colds, stomach bugs etc. I've tried every diet & lifestyle change for years and yet I gain weight, not lose itn(frustrates me as all medical records and my doctors only look for drastic weight loss which I don't have). Back pain. Excruciating abdominal pain which I also had when on menstruation (on testosterone so I don't bleed any more. Thought it might of been endometriosis but my specialist thinks it's bowel related). I used to get small boils which I haven't had iin a while etc. All the generic tests come back normal like bloods stool, urine: same with the Fit test (advanced version of the stool sample). It's caused a lot of issues mentally, more anxiety than anything. I'm constantly taking anti - diarrhea tablets (not imodium as too expensive and not as effective. I use acute diarrhea relief) which I buy myself as it's not on prescription. I do have a radar key but a lot of places don't use them or are staff only, I have thought about getting a card aswell. I'm currently waiting for a consult with gastrology (never been to one). Hoping they will do further testing. 🇬🇧. Xx

Hugely helpful! Thanks for such an informative video on what can be a dehabilitating disease. I’d love to see a video on endometriosis which is often misdiagnosed as IBS, IBD and Crohn’s. Like Crohn’s it is an inflammatory condition and causes pelvic and abdominal pain and can be found in the bowel. Would love to see more awareness of it. Surgery is the gold standard treatment of endometriosis - even to diagnose it - and that can become a slippery slope like you mention for Crohn’s.

I’ve gone on a strict vegetarian diet and it has helped me and I have decided not to take any Crohn’s medication yet.

[@MichaelCS146]

I didn't take meds when I was first diagnosed, and then a few months later, I had a flare-up, and it caused two abcesses in my intestines. Both tunneled all the way through my intestinal wall and one partially through my abdominal wall as well. They didn't happen at the same time, I had one, and they put a drain in. It came back worse after the drain was pulled, and they had to put another in. I was hospitalized 4 times (longest being a whole week, in an isolated room) in a span of 2 months and had a total of about 15 CT scans. In my first hospitalization, they put a PICC line in my arm so IV antibiotics could be pumped directly into my heart, and for four months, I was attached to a pump in a bag that i had to carry everywhere, and that would turn on every 6-12 hours depending on the drug (they tried 4 different antibiotics). I developed an MRSA and CRE infections at the same time (why I was always isolated in the hospital). The final antibiotic that worked was so rare and new that the doctor told me I was his first patient to need it. Towards the end of the four months, I couldn't eat without vomiting immediately after, and would puke at least once a day whether I ate or not, and despite any IV nausa meds I was given. Any pills I took, I would see fully intact in the toliet later that day. In total, I lost over 25 pounds in those 4 months (I had already lost a ton of weight before the flare, which is part of why I was diagnosed) and ended up at 93 lbs and I'm 5' 8". They finally stopped the antibiotics and put me on remicade, so every 8 weeks, I have to go to the hospital and get an infusion for an hour (it started way longer, and they slowly pump it faster each appointment). I could have probably avoided all of it by just taking a pill twice a day. Although, the remicade works amazingly! It's actually a bit more convenient for me since I'm no longer bothered by needles due to all this. I wish you the best of luck with managing your crohn's! (But, I do urge you to listen to your doctor's advice on medicine!)

[@Faithful1]

@@MichaelCS146 yeah definitely sounds like a good idea to take medication listening to doctor is never a bad thing and it might be that I’ll go down that route, they’ve offered me biologics and that sounds fine but I’ll wait, as I’ve gone for a long time without any serious problems without strong medication just taking mebeverine hydrochloride as mentioned before and things are ok.

My Ferritin levels are high (670), my platelets are low (129,000), my neutrophils are low, however my white blood cell count is just in the minimum range. My inflammation marker was - 7. Everything else is in range. Could I be deficient in B12 or Zinc or have Crohn's Disease as I seem to go to the toilet for a number 2 more than I think I should? There is a genetic correlation of Crohn's in our family.

[@siarlbychan]

There is a biopsy that can be done on inflamed tissue. At least that is what was done for my diagnosis. I had an endoscopy done but up until that time, when I began throwing up, there had been a year and a half of 'what do you think is going on?' that I was being asked which really galled me to no end. I wish medical staff would stop asking their patients 'what do you think is going on?' because I worked for an internal medicine doctor and that's basically what medical doctors do when they think the patient is imagining things etc. My Crohn's happens in the section of the intestine directly after exiting the stomach but not involving where the enzymes enter. I had my first surgery at diagnosis in '97 and my 2nd surgery just last year Nov '23. I feel lucky and fortunate not to have experienced very much between the two. I hope your sister is doing well and I wish her the best.
