When I showed up in the ER I was admitted to the hospital and the Colo/Rectal surgeon was obliged to treat me as I had already seen him. He was a very skillful surgeon who preferred not to deal with Crohn's pts but here I was.....dying! They put me on TPN for a week as I had severe malnutrition. I ended up with an ileostomy. I found a different Gastroenterologist from a different health system to treat the Crohn's. She tried 3 different oral med and finally settled on the Biologic Stelara. Everything calmed down and the ileostomy was reversed 2 and a half years later. I have continued the Stelara for 7 years! I hope you can find some help before you are also at death's door! Keep writing!
