Hey everyone, well when I say absent for a year I mean me not my disease! Welp besides graduating College and getting a real persons job which is nuts! I have been doing well in life in general. I have met the most perfect guy ever and I think he really is the one (insert sappy music here).
But, as for my health...well that has taken a horrible spiral downward. So I thought I was doing better, I was only have a few days here and there where I was having really bad days. I went back to my Dr. in January after having a few bad flare ups with my colitis and he decided to add another medication onto my daily regime. So I was up to 9 pills a day I think? Well I thought the first month it helped till February hit and I started getting constantly sick. Aches and pains have been a constant thing since February and still are now. So then mid February till now I have lost 10-15 pounds. No I didn't try, nor was I dieting or working out. So that's not really good. Thankfully I am still at a healthy weight. I have also been urinating 20-25+ times a day along with going at least once per night. I got check at my Primary Dr. for a bladder infection and diabetes and everything came back normal.
So onto recently! The last month I can hardly get out of bed in the morning. I always make sure I get 8 hours of sleep per night and I still can not pull myself out of bed. Thank god I work a desk job everyday because I would be face planting at work if I didn't. I still feel aches and pains and it really just feels like I have had the flu for 2+ months. Along with having BM's (bowel movements) most days 3-5 times but can be up to 10!
Today I am heading to my GI after work and I am nervous and relieved at the same time. I am demanding I get my meds switched or I get put on something like Humira (weekly injection) or Remicade (infusion every 6 weeks). I know both of those are drastic but they have been proven to help put people in remission which is my overall goal! Hopefully my Dr. can agree with me or I might have to think about switching my Dr. Sometimes I feel like he is so nonchalant about things and just likes to wait and see what happens. Drives me insane!
Welp wish me luck! I will let you all know what happens
Bye for now!
