Sorry to abandon my own thread another week spent at the hospital, but things are better than they were. Crohn's definitely sucks but I've found a specialist I think I like and the meds are working slooooowly. I had a lot of intestinal bleeding they stopped and some other complications but from home am a lot more comfortable than I was. I look about 8 months pregnant with all the distention and probably will have another procedure in a month or 2 when we have the swelling under control. Right now I'm on lots of supplements, pain meds, antibiotics, steroids, and other fun stuff but am getting a handle of what I can and can't eat. Low residue diet seems to be working well and my appetite finally came back today. Thanks so much for all the well wishes, advice, help, and similar stories it makes me feel less alone right now
