Reply to "Crohns Diagnosis after J-Pouch surgery"

That's a good way to look at. I am hopeful it will respond to the meds. Remicade is a no go. I tried it and got syrum sickness which was rough. Stelara is supposed to be a superior treatment.

I guess my initial post was reaction to thinking you are "cured" from the disease that caused so much havoc in your life only to find out that isn't the case. I am fairly young and try to stay in good shape. I hate taking the meds, that is the hard part for me. I don't like the idea of relying on a medication the rest of my life to maintain health. I have however come to terms with it. Like you said, the most important thing is getting rid of the inflammation.

Thanks for the perspective.
