So about 1 year ago I was at the hospital with cramps that led to the discovery of my crohns. Even tho it's been less than a year since diagnosis, the impact it's had on my life makes me feel like I've had it much much longer. It's hard to remember living my life without it on my mind.
For the time being, I'm just taking pentasa (but to be honest I haven't taken it for 2 days..I find it so difficult to remember). I feel nauseous pretty much every night now. I get some cramps on my left side, which is weird, but I will make sure to tell my doc about that. On Wednesday I'm getting bloodwork (this will be my 3rd time in 2 weeks) and an ultrasound. No word yet on when my MRI will be.
I went to yoga today. I feel like I'm starting to get into it more, feeling better with the stretches and letting my mind go. I found it much easier to do those things when I went when I was younger, but since I started back this time my mind has been cluttered and found it difficult to get through class. I was doing some research on yoga and crohn's and came across as article about a woman who suffered from severe crohn's all her life and thought she was at the point where she would die. Then she started to do yoga and it helped her like no drug could. Interesting article. You can read it here.
I have been watching New Girl the past 4/5 days catching up on the whole series. Honestly, it is one of the funniest shows I have ever seen. Every episode kills me. I am going to go finish watching it now :)
Good night!
