Well, over six months later and still tring to navigate this miserable disease. Current meds for Crohn's include: pentasa, omeprazole, Bentyl and entocort ec. I just switched to a new doc, and went through a complete blood work up, as well as an MRI enterography. The past month or so has been complete hell. The inflammation has spread, from my joints acting up (hello every joint I've abused in the past decade) to inflammation in my eyes, making it harder to see at night, and just felling like crap. I don't know if it's from the Crohn's or the entocort, but I also feel like marshmallow man, being so swollen and puffy. Pentasa worked wonders for me at first, but the pain and some of the n+d has come back and I can't deal with it. I also am sick and tired of welling feeling so tired and run down. I've been averaging over 11+ hours of sleep a night and still am exhausted. I haven't felt this bad in a long time and am crossing my fingers for a better way to treat this.
