Get an insurance and then go to a doctor!

well, if you live in canada, no problem everyone is insured. if you live in louisiana, same deal. i guess any place else, your favorite place is going to an emergency room in hospital that cannot refuse treatment. as far as my naivity allows every large city has one and if your sick they cannot refuse treatment (actually no er can refuse treatment until you are stabilized) at which time they probably transfer you to a care center for those wo insurance or means to pay. the person that said get insurance was making a little funny because nobody will insure you with active cd.

now, to get to the nitty gritty of things, take a real deep bteath (and if that hurts-bad) please post some history and your symptoms. I AM NOT A DOCTOR! but i am very experienced with cd. tell me your symptoms and let me give it a whack-but don't be surprised if i suggest porcine whip worms. and if want to now what that is about you are going to have to post some more.

if i were you ,i would get some medical help, it will get worse if not treated,
try eat bland foods ,or have protein shakes to keep up your strenght,i have
it too plus UC ,and i do not wish it on any body.eggs and arrowhead cookies
work for me and ensure or boost also but i hate the taste. if you have been
already proven to have chrons,it should be treated , your only hope is it goes in remission. best of luck.
