Ive lost 30 pounds in the last 3 months. It was much needed but Im not doing anything to lose the weight... The only difference is I am no longer taking medication for crohns. I made the choice to stop taking it because it wasnt helping me. In fact I feel it only gave me more problems with the side effects. So Im just wondering if anyone else has experienced this or if i should have a doctor run some tests.
I think it is normal for Crohn's victims to lose weight.........I have not because I take Cholestramine to keep the diarhea (diarrhea) at bay....and cholestramine causes a person to put on weight.....also steriods can cause weight gain....so possibly it was your medications that cause the weight gain.
What meds were you taking.?...maybe researching their side effects may help you.....also just a suggestion if you have a reason to think that you may need to see a Doctor than that is reason enough to see one......
