Diagnosis: Chron's disease

[LBTC]

LBTC

You and your diagnosis have been in my thoughts. After years of misdiagnosis and too many intestinal surgeries my BIL was finally diagnosed correctly as having Crohn's along with my nephew.

I have seen firsthand how difficult a disease it can be to live with but also how it can be managed successfully for the most part and people can still live active and fulfilling lives.

My thoughts and prayers are w/ you as you learn how to manage your body and life in a new way.

Thank you, Eclectic!

So far, so good! The drugs really help - since I started them I've definitely had more good days than bad! It will take time to understand what I can and can't do and eat; and to learn if these things are all the time, or just sometimes. But I'm up for the challenge and thinking about the race(s) I want to do this year.

How are your BIL and nephew doing? How long since they were diagnosed?

Hugs and butterflies,
