I am sorry that you have chrons.  No fun right?  Hopefully you will hear from those who have tried Humira.  I was on Remicade and it did wonders.  I am no longer on it because I have 2 fistula's and had to have bowel resection.   But I went from barely could go to feeling really good on Remicade.  

Good luck, hope it works wonders.

Hi ,yes your right, its no fun,,,,,when did you have your surgery,was it recently???i had a bowel resection,but it was in 1987 and i have been fine untill about 2yrs ago,so hopefully you wont need any medication for a long time,,
thanks for your good wishes

I had my surgery in June of 07.  I didn't know that I had chrons until 06, but looking back I know that some of my symptoms as far back as 2000 were from chrons.  I developed chrons late in life.  I know that most of you that are battling chrons are young.  My heart goes out to you.   It definately changes your life when it is raging.  

Hope yours is in remission soon.
