Not only is my Crohn's severally flaring but I woke up completely stiff and hurting in my joints. So much so I couldn't stand completely upright. My husband said it reminded him of his father, hunched over. I took a shower and while I was in there, the tub was filling with water. I soaked in my tub with the jets for a long while and it did help things. I was able to take the dog for a short walk and then the Crohn's pain took over. I have started drinking Acai Berry to try and help with the inflammation. It tastes not so good but is tolerable. Does it help? Like everything else I take not really. But I am willing to try and do just about anything to help. I continue to consume very little and keep the foods that I do eat to a very soft consumption. Yogurt, soft banana, organic peanut butter and occasionally a piece of bread. What I would really like to eat of course, would be a great big salad, nuts, vegetables and a big piece of salmon or chicken but I have stuck to this diet for a year and a half and I will continue as anything else absolutely kills me. I continue to consumer my probiotics, multi's and all the other vitamins in the hopes that something will make a difference. I am still hopeful with the research that is new that replacing our immune systems will ultimately be the way to go. Otherwise we are just treating a non-stop out of control train that continues to run harder and longer.
