My Crohn’s is finally getting a little better

June 2, 2010 by Tricia

I’m feeling awful today. My back is acting up again and so is my stomach or rather my Crohns. It seems when one thing goes wrong for me just about everything else does too.

I do have to admit that my Crohn’s has been a little better lately. I still have some very bad days, but compared to the last few years of mostly all bad days this is better. Maybe it’s finally slowing down.

I’ve been trying a few things like taking a spoonful of drinkable Aloe Vera Gel each day. It tastes awful … kind of like what I think drinking Purell might taste like. Ugh. I’ve also been taking two acidophilus probiotic tablets a day to increase the good bacteria in my intestines. I’ve had several other people with Crohn’s tell me that these two things have helped them quite a bit. So it’s worth a try. I’m also giving irvingia a go as well.

I’ve been sick and stuck at home on medical leave from my work as a nurse in one of Canada’s busiest emergency rooms for 5 years now. It’s about time I started to feel better. I’d like to get back to work if I can, but more importantly I’d just like to feel a lot better.

      Just do a search for it online You should be able to find a place that either sells it in Australia or who will ship it to you. A friend of mine is picking some up for me and I’m not sure where she got it. Good luck!
