@Charmaine,

I second post #1's response...and also wanted to ask if you've ever tried medical cannabis for your pain/discomfort? I have a friend with crohn's disease and he has told me how cannabis helps him tremendously with his ability to cope with it. Whether it's CBD's or THC I feel that either one may be beneficial. However, if you're going to inquire about this through a doctor, I'd encourage you to consult a doctor who is aware of the properties this plant contains and has an open mind. Most MD's I've heard about seem to shun anything natural without explaining why they feel the way they do about it; but I think it's because they get a lot of their profits through big pharma.

Kratom is another plant that may be worth researching as well for its potent pain relieving effects. Though a naturopathic physician would likely be able to offer the best dosing advice for total therapeutic relief.

As far as the ulcers are concerned, there are OTC supplements and prescription medications available that cater to this; including various dietary implementations for preventing them from coming back. Perhaps a registered dietitian would be your best bet for more specific details on that as well as managing the crohn's more effectively.

I hope this helps and my prayers are with you too!

No one should ever have to suffer such insidious diseases and at such a young age. The best I can do is recommend finding a quality doc to assist you and place you on appropriate Rx's. God bless my prayers are with you
