This really grips my
tit (pun intended). I have Crohns and it is incurable. Any gastro will tell you that. It’s like living with a loaded gun in your body cocked and ready to go off at any time.
When you are first diagnosed they do like to recommend you having a baby as it’s very rare to flare during pregnancy so she may have got mixed up with that bit of advice. She was also diagnosed very quickly. I would say within a few months. Pain in Big Brother, straight to hospital, diagnosis. It took me ten years which means I and others diagnosed late have a ton of scar tissue to deal with too.
I wouldn’t wish a flare on anyone. She may be one of the lucky ones. Fast diagnosis. Not too much internal damage. She may tolerate the drugs well (although I’m sure I read she was on nothing for it)
I can say with 100% clarity though...Paul and Herbs have not cured her.
People with Crohns have to avoid stuff like that. It’s white bread, rice, stodge.
She must be the first person in history to cure Crohns with a high fibre diet
