Thank you so much for this, I am currently going through the process of getting diagnosed and I find it really helpful to hear other people's experiences. I have been having symptoms for many years but I always assumed it was IBS. In the past year it has gotten a lot worse so after months of putting it off, I finally went to the doctors last week. My calprotectin level came back 1300, so that's not good. I'm quite nervous about what's to come, but I guess things can only get better with a proper diagnosis and a treatment plan..
I got diagnosed at 12. Had 24 inches of my small intestine removed before my freshmen year of high school in 2016. As of right now they found an abscess and a perforated bowel. Currently Trying to get rid of the abscess with antibiotics to avoid surgery but I’ve noticed that juicing has helped so much with my digestion compared to meats. I’m glad I found your channel
You tummy may have hurt but may your automatically and naturally more and more brave about it in a ever increasing way have a blessed day my strong and resourceful friends
I don’t think that’s true that it’s more difficult for humans to process meat, but we are allowed to believe and follow whatever diet we want to! I also have crohns and have had those other symptoms (eczema, chostochondritis, joint pain, dry eyes, skin issues, etc) this disease is a bear!! Found your channel because I’m starting Skyrizi and you posted a video about it. Your experience gives me hope about getting my energy back!!
Can't believe that people actually told you that you need to eat meat again 😑 like humans really don't need it. Thank you for being so open btw! I think that the new channel is a great idea :) Edit: I'm sorry you went through much pain and pushed yourself so hard too, that must have been awful. At the beginning of the video I had no idea how much suffering was involved in the whole story. You're so strong for keeping it together and also sharing your experiences.
❤lot’s of love. I’m transiting my own journey with digestive issues, still haven’t had a diagnosis. I’m curious, how do you relate this with astrology?
@@coachninab my moon is in my 6th house too! Alongside my Saturn and Neptune. Thank you for your video and for your response to my comment, a bunch of love and strength to us on our healing journey 💕
Thank you for this. I have ulcerative colitis and have been going through a tough time. I'm so thankful to hear that there are people out there who are going through a similar situation. 🙏
Thank you for sharing. I lost a female friend a year ago when she went in for treatment for this (the disease itself wasn't the cause), but I only learnt after how much her conditions affected her and her life. It seems as I get older I learn about so many new physical things in a way I've not really understood before such as gall stones (affected a friend recently) ❤ I took a moment before allowing myself to sit and listen as was a little sensitive but glad I have.
I also had chronic constipation...and anal fissures. Dry red eyes...I actually got accused of being high in middle school because of it. That's scary about all that blood in your stool. Luckily I don't have high inflammatory markers in my stool tests. If I have crohns, it must not affect my large colon.
Wow I'm so sorry to hear about this! I've really enjoyed your astrology videos for quite some time. I've been going through my own strange health journey for a while now (looking at you Neptune in the 6th... 🙄). Sending you lots of love and healing 💗
Great video - very, very human. Love the issue with the name of the disease - I feel you. Has a terrible visual associated with it right? Would love to hear more about the diet as the channel moves along and whether you maintain veganism. I stay away from red meat - same reasoning actually. Saw a beautiful cow at the 4H COUNTY FAIR back in 2018 and something snapped when I saw it being led off after the auction. I don't miss red meat - still do wild caught fish though! Anyway - shine on you crazy diamond - keep it coming!
Also my name is Eli which is kindve cool because your a certified Eli. Lol. I was on humira but got off of it and didn’t take enough care of my diet. Got sent to an ER where they prescribed me prednisone. I think that is what caused the abscess, but hopefully they will let me get on skyrizi
I’m not sure if you mentioned it in this video, but I wanted to thank you for the information regarding all the extra intestinal and Sjögren’s syndrome symptoms that can accompany Crohn’s disease. This makes sense in my experience.
I got diagnosed with IBD recently and they can’t decide if i have ulcerative colitis or crohn’s because under the microscope the inflammation is only superficial like ulcerative colitis and the inflammation is only in my colon but the ulcers are scattered like crohns and I also get cratered mouth ulcers and I have chronic duodenitis
Plants are full of naturally occurring pesticides called lectins which put weights on one’s health and healing trajectory. Abrasive fiber feeding bacteria causing gas, bloating and in some cases SIBO. Carnivore was the only dietary way that reversed 12 years of suffering with Crohn’s disease.
I am currently going through something veey similar, and have my colonoscopy scheduled for this month. My first calprotecten was 698 and my GI got my colonoscopy scheduled for 3 weeks later.
I recently had my results back, my calprotectin was over 1300 😂 By the time I had my tests, I had been experiencing symptoms for 4 years and was kind of brushed off by everyone. I'd say my symptoms were bad in comparison to someone without IBD, but I was used to it so it didn't seem as bad.
Hi Nina, knowing your keenness with astrology. I wonder whether you've happened to find any correlation between the planetary transits and the times your symptoms showed up more than usual.

Nice you basically parroted what doctors say and want you to believe. I went carnivore and reversed 12 years of suffering with Crohn’s disease. But i won’t tell you to do this because you don’t want any advice. Good luck.
My guess is that, as I listen to your story, you speak glowingly of a diet that is clearly not helping you heal. I heard you describe the worsening of the disease that has occurred since choosing a vegan diet. So I can see how someone who experienced long term remission following exactly the opposite diet from yours might feel frustrated that you aren’t interested. Just my thoughts. I hope you find healing, lovely lady.
