It's been 2 years! I believe in celebrating milestones, whether good or bad, and today marks my 2-year anniversary of my Crohn's disease diagnosis. I was given a gift, a curse, a problem but no cure.

After… Continue reading Seeing All of the Doctors | It Could Be Worse Blog

I tried to sleep and I would wake in pain. The next few days I was useless, not even doing my face or hair until early the… Continue reading Optometry and Friday the 13th — Weeks 41 & 42 | It Could Be Worse Blog
Pain. Last blog post I focused on my body pains and Allodynia and not much changed for me this week. I've had pain every day. I wake up, if I'm lucky enough to fall asleep in the first place, and I'm immediately in discomfort. I wake, and urgency follows, with cold sweats, body shakes, the works.… Continue reading Entyvio Infusion #4 – Week 39 & 40 | It Could Be Worse Blog
