People who are on long term Remicade therapy are 4 time as likely to
get TB. My yeary skin test just came up positive...I got to have chest
Xray tomorrow.....I hope its not positive, Remicade is the only thing
that keeps me alive, I have taken all other meds available for Crohn's
and Remicade is the only one that has made my life any better....:(

Crohn's can really bite. I didn't realize that you were on Remicade. May I
ask how often you take it? My only experience with it has been a former
fiancé who got it thru IV once a week or every two weeks. *pondering* I
wonder what he would've tasted like with catsup? Ooops, sorry. Train of
thought jumped the track there. I've had Crohn's 'officially' for 11 yrs.
:P So I know what it's like to deal with - and all the nifty meds and their
side effects. Ever wanted to tell the doc he should try the meds he so
freely prescribes?

I take Remicade every six weeks, the 'normal' dose is every eight
weeks. The startup procedure is two weeks, then four weeks, then
eight. I was diagnosed 15 years ago but have lots of nastyness going
on for several years before that.
Yes, sometimes the side effects and long term damage seems worse than
the Crohn's....Most people have no idea what it's like having Crohn's,
all the pain...physically and mentally...
The specifics, I have diagnosed with Crohn's Colitus with Perio-renal
disease (fistulas) and I was in the top of the sevear list. I was 90
pounds running an 103 fever and could not stay conscious for any
amount of time wen my parental units decided that I was actually sick
and not just 'in his head'....It's been an uphill battle for sure...I
remenber the days of horrific pain all day long, the six months my DR
decided that to 'cool off' my insides, that I was not going to eat
ANYTHING at all; all I was allowed were three of those Ensure or Boost
diatary drinks per day. The years I was on 80 Mg of Prednisone a
day...Yeah, I've come a long way since then, I am 1000% better; I was
beginning to think that my life seems to have finally settled one
worth struggling for...I hope the test comes back negative, cause if
it's not I will be taken off of Remicade, and all my symptoms will
return. The next drug in line is STILL stuck in FDA approvial and will
likely be for a few more years...

Thanks for listening,
It helps to talk, especually with someone who knows..

The resutls are in...Start TB meds, a six month thing, stop
Remicade....

Why me, what the F did I do. not 2 months ago I was at the DR for my
yearly, he says to the resident that I was being paraded in front of
that "Vincent's one of our long term successes, the kind of person the
people at remicade like to here about". things are going to shit fast.
here i was thinking that just maybe i was going to finally get my life
back. do those things i was never able to do. the things people do,
fall in love, have a family maybe have sex at least once in my life.
hell i've never been loved, not intimant or even a close friend. i'd
trade this bottle of wine for a good solid hug, the only ones i have
ever had were from my mom. hell the only social life i have is here
how GD pathetic is that.
i'm sorry mom, they say the worse thing for a parent to have to go
through is outliving thier children. i don't think i have the strength
or the will to come back from where i am quickly heading. i'm tired.
tired of fighting, tired of the pain, physically, emotionallly.

it's just all gone.

the only thing i can think about is who is going to take care of my
cats. hah! fucking pathetic looser
I look down at my arm, the red spot is still very visible, is dosent
hurt anymore, the pain has burrowed deeper

Don't give up Vincent, "While one still draws breath they are cheating
Death." You may have a worse existence than some of us, but we still wish
we could be like you. Your mind, your personality, your /you/ we enjoy far
to much to have you give up. I am sure something will come along.
*Hugs and all that.*
Sorry it isn't real, but it is the best I can do.

I know how bad Crohn's can be. I understand down days, up days and
everything in between. I do know what it's like to live with a disease that
is eating/attacking one's own body. Seems like a betrayal of the worst kind.
But hon, don't let it define who you are. You are much more than a person
with Crohn's. And hey, you have us Here.

The only thing I can do for the hug thing is this... you been Zen hugged.
Zen hugs - the hugs that you would get, if we were there, if we could hug
you, but we're not, and we can't.

As for the cat they are good for stress and depression. I had a
prescription for my son's cat - for me.

I thought that no one would want to deal with me and my Crohn's and all that
it includes. But I was wrong. Been dating a really great man for a year now.
For me that's something. I've dated at least half the losers in this town it
seems like. If it can happen for me, I know it can happen for you - well not
a man unless you are so inclined.

Go to a support group. Start with the support news group online. I figure it
this way - since I'm already on thin ice I may as well dance. Wanna dance?
*trying to picture dragons dancing and failing* ok, there's a picture I need
help with. Humor helps too. Even if it's warped. Believe it or not, I found
pluses to chemotherapy - in a warped way. From a female perspective. Saved
a ton of money on hair care stuff and haircuts and perms. I didn't have to
shave my legs for six months. Now, how's that for warped?

I wish there was something I could do, a magic pill or something. Don't give
up. Me, I refuse to give up cuz that's the easy way - and I never do things
the easy way. And now I am late for work. :P somehow I just can't get
enthused about detailing cars today.

I'm really sorry to hear things are getting worse again, Vincent, but
as others have said, it still shouldn't leave you in total despair.

I know a guy with Crohns who manages to lead a fairly active social
life when he's less ill, so it's definitely possible. I understand it
might not seem that way at the moment, especially on the back of bad
news, but Talfryn is right -- people who know better than I do what
you're going through might be able to offer some support.

Having a good rant is healthy. Just don't believe everything you say
to yourself during one, 'kay?

How the heck have you contracted TB, Vincent?

You aren't without friends, you know....we may only be words on a cathode

Stick with it friend....

i'm a pessimest and cynical by nature, that dosen't help things.
i always find the list of things that make me not of worth vastly

Wel!. Cannnot add more words or helping hugs . This just bites. Die or
live. That is your choice. Very harsh. Because I am mean I would live just
for spite. Spite the quacks (drs.) I am just speechless. We do care about
you Here! Words, yes but truth in them.

"pills, and a stack of bills",...

Not for you to Judge, friend (sorry to sound preachy). I don't doubt you'll
be found "in the black" overall. I hope I am.....

FWIW I knew someone with a colostomy. They led a normal(-ish) existence (and
had a rather strange sense of humour) May you receive strength whan you need
it. (God I AM getting preachy. Sorry. But I am sincere....)

I wondered.... one thinks of TB as a disease of the past, (and as a mass

That's the pessimism eating at you. It is a deceiver, a traitor, and above
all a LIAR. While you have friends (and you do have friends) you are never

I'm sure Vincent can see the sincerity. FWIW, the guy with Crohns I
mentioned before had an illiostomy seven or eight years ago now, and
still manages to go swimming, drinking and maintains a relationship
with an attractive woman.

Hope that doesn't come across as a "well bloody good for him" sort of
thing -- I'm merely trying to demonstrate that, while one's quality of
life is bound to suffer enormously, it's not a foregone conclusion that
it'll be destroyed completely.

Side note to Arcaton... you said it well...

Vincent... we aren't close, but we have met in RL, and I do consider you a
friend.. when you posted your first post in this thread, I cried... call me
a wimp, call me what you will... I know things don't look so good right now,
but that doesn't mean they can't get better... there is always someone out
there who is far worse than you are, remember that... you are lucky this
didn't occur when you were 15, like a friend of mine's son.. if worse comes
to worse, and I have certainly added you to our prayer list in the hopes
that isn't the case, but if it does, there has to be some good come from
it... I don't know anything about it... but I would assume that you would no
longer be in pain, and you could probably eat anything you wanted to... or
at least more so than you can now... I realize neither one of those are much
consolation... but something good has to come to you, whatever you have to
face, so hang in there... it may not get as bad as you fear it will... and
you must control and eliminate the fear or you will surely draw it to you...
which you don't want!! So just believe that everything will work it, it
will get better and you will be fine... and if I sound preachy as well, I'm
sorry... I do care... please keep us up to date on your current condtion, if
nothing else, so we can at least try to offer some support for what you're
having to go thru...

Much prayers, and warm hugs... take care..
