Now, just put yourself in my shoes. You shit bloody shit 30 times a day, you can't sleep because you wake up every 5 minutes to go to the bathroom, painkillers don't help your colon ache at all. You can't leave the house for fear of shitting your pants. I've shit myself countless times in public places. The doctors are ignorant and don't know anything, and the medications are terrible. The only treatment is to have your entire intestine removed, but that results in you shitting in a bag attached to your stomach, and you develop another autoimmune disease. And I acquired all of this when I was 17. Appreciate your health.

I use Remicade and it works well for me. I also use mesalazine + azathioprine. I go to the emergency room every two days because of a throat infection and high fever.

Yes, I was taking it to relieve severe flare-ups, but it caused me severe muscle and bone loss, as well as permanent stretch marks.

No, I don't leave the house, and it saddens me to see my immune system so weakened. I will probably get cancer in the future because there is a serious relationship between the immune system and cancer. Biologicals have been proven to cause a number of cancers.

That's why I just enjoy what I can now because I doubt I will live a long life anyway

it is what it is, some have it worse

How do you deal with the fact that if we weren't in the 21st century, we'd all be shitting our blood to death? For example, if we were born 400 years ago.
