Crohn’s Forum

This is just a little post to let you know of some more good things happening.  Recently I was asked to do a monthly post for The Crohn’s Forum’s blog page.  So far there are three others doing post’s for them and many of you will know these names.  They are Jackie from Girls With Guts, Jessica from Uncover Ostomy, and Kathleen from Crohnological Order.

So far all of the post’s I have done for them have been different from what I post on here, and that has been the challenge for me.  As you know, my posting have declined lately.  One of the reasons for that is I don’t know what to talk about.  I have been very busy lately and haven’t had time to focus on my disease.

So, I know I have asked in the past…but what would you want me to talk about.  Are there any topics I haven’t covered that you would want me to talk about?  I am pretty open to anything and as you know, I won’t hold back.  While you think about it, go check out the Crohn’s Forum’s blog site and while you are there check out the rest of the site.  You might meet some new people there and find a new friend.

I do have to say, one really cool thing about their site is their doctor directory.  They have a list of doctors from all over the world with reviews from patients.  If you need to find a new doctor, this can be a great tool for you.

  1. I recently finished and published a book on my 47 years with the disease. I wanted to contact you and share that info. Is this possible?

    my husband had been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis and it’s been over 6 months and still bad off. Apriso had him in the hospital for five days with a rare allergic reaction. now on prednisone (which does help much) and now on infusion of remicade. he also has fissers which he just had the botox shots, but ulcers are back in his mouth and bumps all over his body. I believe it’s crohnes, what do you think?

    • First, and I have to say this, I am not a doctor and can not diagnose anyone.

      Now with that said, first I would ask how he was diagnosed with UC. What tests did he get? From what you say, the meds he is on would help even if it was Crohn’s and not Ulcerative Colitis. As for what I think…if he has mouth ulcers, it can be a result of the IBD and I don’t think you get those with UC, just CD. Again, I am not 100% sure of that.

      There is never any harm in getting a second or third opinion. Good luck and I hope your husband feels better real soon.

    Love your blog!! I have also guest-blogged for Crohn’s Forum, and found the link to your site. I love it! My blog (http://crohnietravels.blogspot.com/) is on blogspot, but I’m not liking the aesthetics as much. Do you mind sharing your web-building platform and if there is a fee? Thanks!
