Chron's is a tough one to battle. I know...I'm in my 30th year fighting against it. I got it when I was 16.
i've found what helps control it. Very easy on the greasy foods, no alcohol...none, no cola's (7-up, sprite types are o.k.).
I've been on the dreaded prednisone, cipro, asacol, and a few others over the years. What is working great for me right now is remicade. Given via I.V. every 8 weeks and it shut it off like a light switch.
I feel for you. I've been there, done that...got the belly scar to prove it. I was going to have it tattooed to look like a zipper.LOL
Hang in there guys. There is a life with this crap.
