Good Times


I am actually feeling quite good at the moment. The Crohns plan is being followed, but I have added a new rule.

  1. Stay away from Bread and wheat

My auntie has also put me onto an intolerance test, called the York test. I have posted a message on a Crohns forum to see if anyone has tried it. From reading the forum I have learnt that most people find that different things flare up their Crohns.

Recently I got a bit of a fright when reading Whisky's Crohns blog. She was mentioning something called a fistula. Apparently people with Crohns can develop wholes in their body!!!!!!!!! FREAK OUT!

Hopefully I won't be getting one of these.. Gots to stay of the smoking and be a good boy.

Aaaaaw hun!

Don't freak out!! Not everyone who has Crohn's gets the fistula's. I'm just one of the unlucky ones.
Thankfully since I had my bag, apart from the odd icky feeling after eating too much I have no other Crohn's symptoms.
Thanks for the link :) next time I update my story I'll add your link if that's ok.

Please don't worry......I'm a smoker too, and it's one of the only things that's kept me going over the last few years.

Hope you are having a good day!

Healing hugs

Hey Whisky, thanks for the comment. Apologies for being so alarmist, it was not very sensitive of me.

When you start reading all this inforamtion on the internet it can shock you a little.

You are a very brave person, and thank you for sharing your story.

I am still feeling good and I have managed a few days without ciggies. Staying off them really makes a big difference for me.

A link back would be great :)
