The symptoms have not eased but temporarily since this time in (April 2009) up to current date and time. I just had surgery for an incarcerated hernia, dr's didn't want to correct it surgically due to my extensive surgeries.
I was told that the swelling as of this past surgery date (October 2011) that the swelling is currently acute in reference to the crohn's disease and had a partial bowel obstruction at that time which was full blown in a matter of 2 weeks after. So I don't know now where to go or what to do the dr's suggestion is to treat me with remicade well shoot just 1 side effect from that medication is at least equal to the most chrohn's disease symptoms so not only am I afraid to take this medication but also don't understand that this is a better way of life for anyone suffering with crohn's so HELP please.

David Klein's book (basically fruit and veggies diet) helped a family member with Crohn's. Pain and diarrea subsided in one or two days.
