Just for further education, flares can also include but not limited to: joint pain, fatigue, sweating, chills and low grade fever. That's my experience, at least.
I know what you mean having a flare up last few days how do you work did you have to get disability been dilling with this for probably a year after gallbladder surgery do you puke green and have green diarrhea its not always green
Eat cucumber and carrot as salad everyday, include apples and pomegranates more in your diet, buttermilk and curd rice might be a great help. Eat curry leaves or mint leaves chutney
This was calming and helpful. Thank you. It's been years since I was diagnosed and a flare still throws me off my game. Thanks for the clear steps. I'll save this as reference.
I had two this month. Put me out 3 to 4 days a week. I’m curious if anybody else has diarrhea or vomiting or they have pain in their heart? I think from the vomiting, the strain on my heart, the hospital thought that I had a small heart attack last time. How do you know where it comes from that is the scary thing? Do you think it is completely diet?
I was diagnosed in 2013 too and have been dealing with the insurance struggle and getting a good care team in place. Hoping things look up for you. Hang in there. ❤
I was diagnosed when I was fifteen after a year of pain and suffering. People are too scared to treat or diagnose children in the US and I almost died because of it. We need to fix our healthcare system or things are only going to get worse.
@@user-hi7vo9ct5xIn all honesty, not great. Im not incapacitated anymore but I still have a lot of pain and other symptoms even on medication. Im trying to look into alternative things to try it now, like seeing a dietician.
Went years without having a flare; was diagnosed at the age of 6 and went in remission around the age 10. Now I’m 22 and my UC has been back up and running for the past 2 months😪😪
@@JanFreebersyser-ne7gzoh its constant for sure. Day in and day out, my fiance seems miserable and I don’t have any other resources to help. Scheduled to see the GI but i feel like thatll only lead to wanting surgery.
I was diagnosed today with colitis. 4 days of straight burning and uncomfortable feelings and poor sleep left me in the ER and the doctors found the problem with a CT scan. I just want this too end
I am just getting over flare up. I’m 50 and just diagnosed in2022, this was 3rd and the worst. The pain was unimaginable, several times I was sure I was gonna pass out, hoping to. Ended up in ER and have missed 3 days of work. I can’t imagine dealing with knowing one of these could be right around corner. I’m currently petrified to move.😮
I've had Ulcerative colitis for 18 year's and the carnivore diet has put my Ulcerative colitis into remission for over 3 years and I'm off all medications
Yes I have heard about this. I have UC for 27yrs, I drink kefir milk which I make myself with the grains also cod liver oil and aloe Vera are which help but I am unwell a lot now and the disease has spread to the right side. I don't know if I could stick to the meat diet but I will give it a try.
Be careful of this, not everyone responds well to diets and ditching the meds is literally one of the worst choices you can make as most people don't have the will power to sticking with ultra restrictive diets.
May I ask I have sticky muscus discharge found in stook after bowel open and increased difficulty in oassing stool. Is it a symptom of ulcerative collitis？
I have had colitis since 21. Recently i traveled out of state for a month. The coalitis cleared up and i didn't even use medication when i was away. As soon as i landed back and started eating the food here the flate up came back after few days. I think dieat is key. Am yet to find out exactly what food.
Hmm, another re-active version Id expect from conventional medicine, there are more pro-active programs to avoid having the flare. The medications do-not remove the cause of the inflamation only the symptom.
Thank you for this information. Ever since I was diagnosed with IBD, I have been eating Herbalife and it really good with managing gas and constipation..... I've been feeling way better. When I don't have money to buy the Herbalife than I will feel this gas on my abdomen
Hi I have a Question, Is Herbalife a powder, pills, Etc...? I would love to buy this for my daughter that has pain in her belly often cause of her colitis
This may help to cope: any two ply tp and any body lotion (not body wash), wipe and repeat until paper is clear. Cleans and soothes rectal tissue. Expensive wipes are history!
Did you find anything out? I thought that was a great question, I think I have the same thing, had it twice this month already it is so incredibly painful that I can hardly stand it. When they ask my pain level, I say nine, with 10 being, I would have to be on fire. Feels like a cheese grater on your intestines. I am not even on medication, I guess I need to think about that first but I’m gonna look for some dietary information and if I find some thing I will bring it here to share it with you
@@moxig5717 ive found that diet plays a role, diet and stress. For me, specific foods dont hurt as long as i include 4-5 organic meals in my diet per week
@@moxig5717 No alcohol. And for diet Low fiber diet Low FODMAP diet Low residue diet and Carnivore diet. I cycled through them and determined that the carnivore diet was the best by far, for me.
Hi I had the disease for over 15 years it was in control for at least 12 years until my doctor's messed up and failed to do the correct test when I had really bad gurgling in my stomach. I would get your Doctor to get you a dietitian and check for deficiency in things like iron, B12, calcium, and potassium etc. Make sure as well all your meds are timed for the same time each day or month week mine monthly now. Drink lots of water and sounds odd but I find Bananas are usually good to eat and helps a little bit. The only other thing I can advise is try and relax when you can and I know this is the difficult part of exercise when you can. I know none of this is a cure but it may help. Best of luck to you.
I m taking medications regularly yet I am getting unwell. Urgency to go to toilet, cramps in thigh, feeling feverish. I don't know what to do. I am having ileitis.
🚫Caffeine. Stay Hydrated. Everyone goes through UC and CD differently. Test and see if certain foods are causing the problem. Some foods may cause constipation, some diarrhea. I am sorry you are going through this.
I’ve had this since I was 18. There’s Chanel’s where people claim they have cured themselves with diet and microbiome management but idk. I’m 32 now and terrified I’ve got cancer. But I hate going to the doctor. Uhg.
Hey , since you got a bit of experience how’s your 14 years with crohn? Did you somewhere at some point achieved remission? And how , please help because i got diagnosed a year ago and it keeps getting worse
My Crohns is really getting me down at the moment. Ive felt ill for a few weeks with zero energy. I have two young kids so it sometimes makes me irritable and I don't have the energy to play with them. I also find it hard that you're never sure if you feel ill whether its linked to a flare or not. Ive had headaches for weeks and no idea if its Crohns or something else as Crohns and the medications can obviously lead to so many different symptoms
Medication would be great if you have a good GI doctor. Mine sucks. Never given me any meds but BENTYL. and we all know that works for a year and neevr works again.
My brother was diagnosed with chrons Nov 23, his age was 36 then, treatment was going on he was having flare in lower abdomen, but he got multiple ulcers in throat, after 3 days of hospitalisation his BP got dropped dr could not find any pulse after some time .

I been trying different medication for 3 years, I even had surgery to remove a part of my intestines and I still ended up In the hospital afterwards nothing helps I am mess up, I fallow I strict diet 😭😩😭😩

yep the good old doctor stand by when they haven't got a clue """ stress"""" How did fighter pilots or trench warfare soldiers get on? Every diet is totally different with completely opposite and apposing recommendations. Just stop eating, look at fasting info if you are not skinny , you are over weight , you must stop stuffing your fat gob. During a recent flare I had to travel by car on a couple of eight hour trips , I stopped eating after eight o'clock the night before and got by the next day on a total of 2 small thick shakes and 2 small maccas chips, all day felt more alert while driving and was not tired.
Hey, please every one help me , i was diagnosed with crohn a year and a half ago about 5 month i started taking humira i took 160mg first then stopped for some reasons I can’t changes , after that i started taking back but lowering the doses, at the first time when i took 160mg i felt like its a magic everything is perfect, but after i stoped even when i take humira it keept getting worse every couple of weeks what can i do?
Have you changed your diet at all? I was diagnosed at 23 and was battled with it until I was 26. They had me on multiple meds that worked for a short period of time and then completely stopped working. Rectal mesalamine and cutting out gluten, spicy food and caffeine helped me tremendously.
@@draedeltoro6542 look there is alot of my friends telling me the diet is the main secret buy i can’t cut off all these it’s too hard bro how could you
