Since 2010 Rest of my post


Mon, January 20, 2020 8:42 PM

Guess I'm just scared of what may or may not happen after my visit with my new gastroenterologist and what she may or may not find. I'm tired of always wondering where a bathroom is when I go out, or on vacation. I see so many stories of others that have Crohns and Colitis and from what I read I'm not sure I should be complaining. I don't have a colostomy bag, I haven't had to have surgery, my stomach pains are tolerable except the hard rectum stinging one but I just cry and wish this would go away. Due to me being a bodybuilder and my lifestyle you would never guess I'd have what we have. 95% of the time I do what I'm supposed to and it doesn't seem to be enough. Ten years of seeing blood in the toilet and on wipes, along with the fatigue just starts messing with my head.I wish I could give all my money I have to everyone of you to help get better. I hope to chat with some people and talk to each other and get some stress out or something.........
