i’m sixteen and i was diagnosed with crohn’s disease just a couple months ago. i know i have only just reached the surface of the different struggles and symptoms, but it has been very difficult and a major life style change. however, i find it very comforting to know there’s someone else out there with my same struggles but they’re still prospering and living a great life. thank you for making these videos and letting not only me, but other people with our disease, that were not alone.

I got diagnosed with crohns when I was 4 or 5 and I’m almost 13 now. I have had so much problems through this 8 years but since January this year I started a vegetarian diet and it has really helped my crohns. I still take medication but if I miss one day that doesn’t matter and I feel good anyway which I haven’t before. I’m so glad I find your channel cuz I have always felt like I was kinda alone and that no one really understood what I was going through, thank u a lot!!
Oh I can’t thank you enough for this video!! After requiring emergency surgery years ago I was in remission and able to be off Chron’s meds for 22 years. Now my condition has changed and I am needing meds in order to maintain an acceptable quality of life. Your insights are in line with my experiences living with this disease for the past 24 years. The truth is that I also find, as I approach my 59th birthday, that my body needs different kinds of support in general than it did in my thirties. Your sharing is a source of comfort and inspiration to me. Keep staying true to yourself and enjoy life💕

I have also gotten off azathioprine, less is sometimes more. But I'm on Stellara and it's a miracle for me. As you so rightly said, it's different for everyone.

I love this video! I’m getting to the point where I want to start sharing my story. Today I’m getting back on meds Stellara after being off humira for a year. In this last year 3 hospital admissions and major struggles so Doc said it just is getting worse. Thanks so much
I was recently (2 months ago) diagnosed with Crohn’s disease after several endoscopes, colonoscopies, CT scan’s, bloodwork, biopsies etc. I was having a flare up a few months before I had my “scopie’s” this year. I changed my diet and I felt better and some of my more severe symptoms went away (pre scope’s). My gastroanologist put me on the same meds that you were on. I read the side effects and thought NO WAY! I haven’t taken them and I see my doctor again tomorrow. I for the most part feel good when it comes to my “gut.” I’m still exhausted, but like you I would rather feel what my body is telling me than to take those meds!! The side effects are horrible! Like you when my body starts telling me I’m having a flare up I’ll consider the meds. but I won’t right now. Not to indorse but I started taking CBD gummies. 25mg in the am and 50mg in the evening. In the am it does help with my gut pain. I tried to not take it until my gut starts bugging me. But, I’ve decided that it works so well that I pretty much take it everyday now. It also helps with my insomnia. I know ironic but true! You can be totally exhausted from Crohn’s AND not able to sleep at night (my sarcasm but still true.) I’m really enjoying watching your videos. I’ve watched several just shaking my head like “preach, preach!!” So I decided I had to leave you a comment. As below…speaking for us Crohnies🤪
Hello! You literally have inspired to me to start a vlogging channel. I have Moderate/severe Crohns disease. I have questions. I have Advice. I have personal experiences to share as well! Thank you for the inspiration . Together we can help make a more of a voice to raise awareness for this invisible illness
I'm so glad you're ok and you find a way to deal with Crohn's without med ♥ Unfortunately I received an additional dose to my treatment ... because of the stress I am no longer in remission .. basically I lost in 2 months what I've won in 2 years. I'll hold on to your advice :)) " If u don't make good decisions at least make sure they're funny" ♥♥♥
On Aza at the moment, but it's been 6 years and I'd love to come off them (every doctor has said my blood is fine but I don't feel fine!) been considering the natural approach for a while - we shall see! this video was very refreshing, thank you! x
Hey fellow cronie! I know the pain you are talking about. It stinks. My dr reccomended I try turmeric. I take it in pill form morning and evening. It helps me greatly!! Just an idea to try. It's not for everyone, and it doesn't help some at all. Glad you're doing well.

Hey, Im a fan of your vids i to have Crohns since 2013 im 23 now. I thought since that you have helped me through a hard time that I could help you and other people with the same issue. I've contacted a friend that has a KZread channel he like to live stream his content. I've mentioned your KZread channel hes going to kindly shout you out so that the word about Crohns is out there more. To show people there not the only ones going though it and to show that theirs ways to over come it. Thanks I hope you done mind but i thought I was a nice thing to do.
Very informative video.Thanks for all your posts.I was diagnosed with chrohns 2 and a bit years ago.Medication i was on was horrible.Side effects were truly awful.Nausea, catching every cold and flu going, tiredness and hair-loss.Thanks to the wonderful Aziathioprine.Terrible drug.Personally for me the side effects were too much.Decided to go on a gluten and dairy free diet and take CBD oil, from cbd brothers..My life has changed completely.I found out that i had non celiac wheat sensitivity which was causing terrible inflammation.So true about the diet being involved with flares. The cbd oil was a miracle.Well worth checking out buddy.Take care and peace.Hope everything works out for you and to everyone who is battling any disease.
Ive been a sufferer since i was 6. I chose to come off all of my medications when i was 14. Began using strict diet and more recently treating with medical canabis. Im yet to have any surgery wich was recommended. I still flare. But i will say im able to function.
Just found you! So needed these videos and your community! Making crohns fun and colourful and not functional, and chatty :)
I went through the exact same thought process about taking mediation. I have consistently weaned myself off medication every single time I've been prescribed after a flare up. I have tried every single diet out there, lived a very healthy life style determined to make it work without medication. I am now going through my 3rd flare up in 3 years and deeply regret my decision. I will never not take medication again. No matter what your lifestyle is like, this illness will win over time if untreated. I hope you continue to be healthy and completely respect we're all on our own journey with this.

I think a key thing here for other people is that people can have different levels of cal. protectine. If you always had a high level, you can't just stop outta nowhere and eat whatever you want. Not saying you cannot achieve a medication free life, but you have to work really hard to keep your gut healthy

I get what your point is. Although the medication was working, you wanted to be able to know what your body needs by choosing the holistic approach. This meant that going off medication would let you see how certain foods affect you. By choosing the foods your body responds well to, you are able to feel better without medication. ❤️❤️❤️
thank you so much for making this video! i just found your channel and I absolutely love it. I have crohn's as well and it was really nice to find you, you're great
So glad that I came across your channel as I’m doing the same thing at the moment, coincidence much? Lol I had been on azathioprine for a few years and made the decision to come off it, hated the side effects especially Suppressing my immune system! And on top of that my 6weekly IV meds started to give me complications.. fun. So now going down the natural route.. it’s all trail and error really. Anyways, So happy I found your page, you’re funny and real! Keep it up x Hope all goes well for you

I literally relate to this so much i havent been on alot of medication just the basics like steroids anti inflammatories ect. And it made me feel great Crohn’s wise but i just didnt feel good i gained alot of weight and i would rather just deal with the Crohn’s my way and i can actually manage it with diet which is great but also i have pretty extreme anxiety and its sort of hard to sort out my stomach issues and anxiety because they are kind of connected in a way (i get anxiety my stomach hurts, my stomach hurts i get anxiety) so i honestly dont know if i want to go on medication, Crohn’s really sucks lol
Love this video! I’m all about listening to my body and what it needs. I’m thinking about a vegetarian diet because I’m just not tolerating meat as much but I’m nervous about adding more fiber. Any tips? I’m on mercaptopurine currently (only about 6 weeks in).

I would love to know the point of view from the other side. I'll be waiting for more videos! Lots of love from Spain!!!!
I turned Pescatarian two years ago due to meat hurting my stomach more when digesting. It’s been good so far currently on Humira to control my Crohns
I haven't had meds for 3 years forgot I have chroma untill I drink to much and to many takeaways then I stop eat healthy then I'm good as gold
I have ulcerative colitis been off meds for 3 years but lately (this past week) I’ve been waking up with lower stomach pain.. not a sharp pain, but I wake up and feel like tenderness and soreness.. it goes away after my first bowl movement do you know what it could be?
good stuff ....... can't wait till your one year without meds anniversary
anyone found a way to treat bad flares of crohns without medication? i'm worried the drugs are so intense that they are causing other issues (mercaptopurine, eg. lymphoma, liver and kidney toxicity, etc) and finding an alternative

I completely understand how you feel. I have had Crohns disease for 20yrs. No medication has worked,humira worked a little bit in that it ever so slightly reduced the number of times i went to the toilet. Now i am on Stelara and what do u know it aint working either. Im due for a sigmoidoscopy at the end of next week and im not expecting good news. This disease has completely destroyed my self esteem. I used to be brimming with confidence before this nightmare began. My doctor says im the worst case of Crohns disease in a patient that she has ever seen,so thanks doc another blow to the self esteem that i could do without. The doctors keep trying to get me to have a stoma done or they said i will end up losing my colon. I refuse. I really hope things go well for you,its a terrible disease.

I live in Australia. Just looked up that Coimbra protocol,its not a cure and may only give partial relief so its a waste of time. Im lucky that i have a very honest surgeon who has told me that with Crohns disease a bag will not always be of benefit for many reasons. You do know that Crohns affects anywhere from your mouth to your bottom/bum? With me i have multiple fistula's. If i was to get a bag(hate the thought of it) my surgeon has said i could quite possibly develop fistula's at the bag site. So im not keen at all on the bag. You see just because they cut out the diseased part of your bowel,with crohns there's nothing to say it wont pop up somewhere else. Doctors dont like hearing that you might be thinking of trying something natural,its outside of what they supposedly know. My doctor flipped out when i told her i was going to try a natural alternative. I shouldnt have opened my mouth. Im trying a few different pro-biotics and other supplements with some success. Because of how sick i am its going to take a while to get a hugely noticeable difference. Im having a procedure Friday so i'll know how things have progressed after that. I feel like this new medication im on(Stelara) isnt doing a thing,if anything its making me worse since ive been on it. Can i ask you before you were diagnosed had you been on a lot of anti-biotics through your life?

All my problems started with stomach pains as a child, not necessarily diarrhoea, I just felt sick and unwell after eating. especially meat which made me violently throw up, stopped eating that long ago.they treated my stomach problems back then by different medication but it took up until my late teens, early twenties to see a Gastroenterologist I only got diagnosed with Crohns after my first bowel resection .up until then I had IBS or "stomach flu" or food poisoning (even though I ate nothing) which ended up on operating table,lol. I wasn't really taking any antibiotics as a child. Apart from my stomach pains I never had any health problems that would require them. I totally agree with u. There will be other complications with the bag and if they remove your colon there's no way of going back unless they want to do it temporarily? My mum's friend has not 1 but 2 permanent bags.... She doesn't even want to leave the house :(

Its amazing how this disease has surfaced in us differently. There seems to be nothing consistent in regards to the signs of having this awful disease. With me i had minor problems with my bottom when i was pre teenager,then they went away until my mid twenties and even then how i was diagnosed was because i went to the toilet 1 day and the bowl was just blood. So from that i was diagnosed with Crohns. Im the opposite to you as meat sits easy with me and stays in my body longer so i go to the toilet less,but you cant live off meat alone. The bag with me would to start be temporary to rest my colon and hopefully allow it to heal because i have abscess' inside my bottom. They 1st time they scraped them out i nearly bled to death. How come your mums friend has 2 bags? I dont understand that. We just cant give up and we have to keep pushing forward. Some days can be tough,really tough but just remember there is always somebody who is more worse off than you and me

Can you touch on alcohol consumption on versus off medication?
How do you feel now that you are off medication?
I really don’t understand your logic, the medication doesn’t make you numb, so the reason you couldn’t feel anything when you were on the medication was because your bowels weren’t getting damaged because the medication stopped your body attacking itself. It doesn’t mask damage it prevents it. When you are off medication you can feel it because your bowels are getting damaged 🤔

I’ve had chrons for nearly 10 years, been on many of the biologics, antibiotics, and steroids. I still developed abscesses, fistulas, and even had sepsis, all while on meds. Personally, I feel the meds have exacerbated my condition. They literally make you more susceptible to infection, and weaken your ability to fight things off. I’m coming off the meds now, with a strict regimen from a very good naturopath. It’s a whole lifestyle you have to adopt to do it successfully, but I am willing to try, as the regular treatments have been a nightmare for me.

Hey, I definitely would not say that 'you can eat whatever you want' is good advice, so please be careful! In my experience (I can only talk about my own experience and am not a medically trained professional) I was lucky because Azathioprine massively reduced my stomach symptoms and therefore allowed me to have a relatively 'normal' diet compared to what I had been used to. However, I know that a lot of people are not as lucky as me and some people never manage remission through Azathioprine, so unfortunately what works for me may not work for someone else. Please make sure you discuss any decisions about your body, diet and medication with your GP, hospital consultant or dietician! Good luck, Lx

Good evening !!! Amazing information depicted!!! Obviously every disease depends on the lifestyle of a person and we need a permanent solution for this so we should prefer Planet Ayurveda's treatment which will not have any side effects. all the products are pure and vegetarian.
I can beleave that you had crohn and symptoms and is a bouel desease , and you were eating junk food . What do you expect.
You are so funny and very beautiful. Would love you to do a video on looking good whilst you have a chrons flare up. Chrons is so more than just a bowel issue , it kills your self esteem.
