Living Daily with Crohn's Disease by Crohnsnme

There are a few forums/chats available to people who suffer from crohn's disease.  I have a favorite that I used to frequent when I was first diagnosed with Crohn's Disease and needed answers to specific questions.  Even if you are just feeling isolated it is a place to meet with others who may be going through the same issues you are or can offer advise.  You can also find answers to so many other questions.  Even embarrassing issues.  You would be surprised at how candid strangers are with each other. Some of the advice that is given is absolutely crazy though and should be taken with a grain of salt.  But general questions about how people deal with this disease can be helpful in your daily life.  If nothing else, you will realize you absolutely are not alone.  There are so many others dealing with similar symptoms and issue from this devastating disease.  Once in a while I will go back to it, look up something or just stop in.  It can be time consuming though.  Chatter beware.
