OK... I was tagged by 17 people, figure I'll return the info-sharing favor. Also figured I'd put it here, for a somewhat different audience. Bonus thing #26, I habitually do not respond to chain letters or memes...
Crohn's is so nasty. My mom, grandmother, aunt and one sister all have it. On the other hand, they've invented some pretty neat meals while working around what they can't have.
I'm really pretty lucky... I take only one medication now, and no steroids, yay!! Just a powder I'm supposed to mix w/liquid and drink before every meal, which is more related to the surgery than the Crohn's itself. It's unpleasant, but it keeps me from spending every waking moment in the bathroom or doing laundry. I really only have a problem with fatty foods and milk at this point, which is pretty easy to work around. I was terrified of having surgery, but really glad now I did it.
