With all that is going on with my health, I want to be under 200lbs but cant seem to do it. How can I lose weight fast?

I am being treated for Ulcerative Colitis and “Gerd”. I take a “sulphazine” drug and daily steroid enema for colitis. I also take Prilosec for the acid reflux. A friend has recommended I start a pro biotic supplement. Is this a good /safe idea?

Was recently diagnosed with a severe case of Gastritis and a bleeding stomach ulcer from stress. I am 23 years old, which feels a bit young to have it, but I do stress severely…
I read somewhere that Ibuprofen and Aspirin should be avoided as it will be damaging. I have a severe headache right now and I usually take 400mgs Ibuprofen. Should I take it?
Only other pain meds I have is Aspirin.
What is PPI?

I have a really bad achy to sharp pain in my lower right side from my Crohn’s Disease and I am taking Tramadol and/or Vicodin as needed. Tylenol does not help at all whatsoever and I don’t want to become dependent on controlled drugs.

Has anyone has to take either the liquid or pill laxative that is required prior to a colonoscopy while breastfeeding? my doctor advised that I can continue breastfeeding during the prep, but not after the procedure due to the sedations meds….but i’m still concerned about the effects the laxative may have on my daughters system. I’ve decided to just use pumped milk, but I was wondering if anyone have any experience with this and how the baby reacted?

I have been coughing at night for weeks now. Mostly at night. I will be fine and then go into a coughing fit. I use sugar-free cough drops that surpress it but as soon as it is gone the cough returns. I have heard that heartburn medicine can cause a cough. Is this the kind of cough it causes?

Hello. Thanks for helping.

Today my doctor prescribed me the same meds they give you before you get a colonoscopy. The liquid bad tasting stuff.

My stomach hurts very bad. Since I am not getting a colonoscopy I am allowed to eat but what would settle my stomach but not make me worse?

Thanks.

I haven’t had any Crohn’s treatment for the past two years, no problems. How can I find a provider that will not disciminate against pre-existing conditions?


15 minutes before this video, Alycia was in the hospital doubling over with stomach pains and crying because her spleen was enlarged. So they started an IV on her to give her pain medication for her discomfort and within minutes watch the video to see what the medicine does to her. It was so funny!
