Got My Test Results Back...

[jenluckenbach]

I wish you the best in the treatment of the disease. Just finally KNOWING is some confort, because now the treatment options can begin. {{{{{HUGS}}}}} and prayers for quick control of symptoms.

[Logan]

I'm glad you know, even if you don't like the results. Now you can tackle the issues, Kelly, and get yourself back on track. One of my Golden Retriever friends (cyberfriend) has Crohn's disease, and I won't kid you, she has some really bad "down" times. Perhaps with your permission, I could send Liz your email address and perhaps she could give you some insight. You say the word and I'll be glad to do it. Just let me know for sure which email address you want me to use, if you want me to do that at all. You can send me a PM or email to let me know.

Best of luck to you, my friend.

Logan

I also knew someone with Crohn's. Have not seen him in a while but he seemed to control it with diet and medication. Hope that's all it takes for you. Prayers are on the way.

Kelly, I am not happy that this is the diagnosis, but as I p/m'd you a while back, my friend has it - and it can be controlled with medication. Gosh, you seem so young to have this disease.

We are all here for you - wanna complain, grouch, whatever, you are welcome to - you have been through a lot!

Hugs from Gini

Sorry to hear that. My sister was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease about 2-3 years ago. When she was first diagnosed, she was very weak, but now after medical treatment, she is doing well. I always keep her in my prayers, and I will do the same for you.

Kelly, I'm glad you've got some news and know what you're dealing with now. I don't know anything of Crohn's but I hope you can start a course of treatment soon that'll help with your health. I hope your six fur-nurses are keeping you cosy and happy

[krazyaboutkatz]

Kelly, I'm so sorry to hear that you have Crohn's disease. At least you know what you're dealing with and hopefully you'll be able to go into remission with the proper treatment. Prayers are on the way. Take care. {{{HUGS}}}

Kelly
I'm so sorry to hear that news, I don't know much about it either, will have to read the link.
I'm sure there are things that can be done to help it.
I hope you are feeling better soon!

We are behind you 100%! I'm sorry about the bad news Kelly, but you are strong one.

Kelly I am so sorry for you. This is a very serious diagnosis but on the other hand I know people who have it and have it well under control (one is the personal assistant of my boss. She's 48 years old and runs marathon races). Of course it means that you will have to concentrate on the disease. I am sure you will find people on the web who can help you.
I keep my fingers crossed that you can live with it as easy as possible

Dear Kelly, I didn't know this disease, but after reading on those sites, I do! It is rather a serious thing; but hopefully, you diagnosed it early enough, so you will be able to control it with medication and a good balanced diet! I wish you all the luck in the world!!

[Randi]

Kelly, I'm sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with Crohn's. I hope the treatment you get will keep it under control and you can get on with your life in a fairly normal way!

Best of luck!

Positive thoughts and hugs to you.

Sending ((hugs)) your way. You're in my thoughts and prayers.
