‘Tell me Where it Hurts...’

‘...Everywhere. Joints; knees, ankles, wrists, my back, my hips, shoulder, right elbow, oh, yeah, and when you’ve had a perianal Crohn's disease-related abscess incision & drainage, not to mention delineation, debridement, unroofing, multiplied by 25 or so in ten years, you begin to...well...hurt all the time.

I don’t assume to receive any special benefits, I only write honestly about pain, as I do, so that others know what comes with Crohn’s/Colitis/IBD. It’s one job of an advocate. Writing relatable mateial to his/her targeted group so that they may feel some sort of solidarity, a bit less alone, on their own. And when your doctor tells you to seek all alternatives, as the normal treatments have been exhausted, yet they won't recommend any alternative treatments, what does one do?' He puts up with comments from family members who naturally assume that because he had an accident, he must have been high. No, I was in fact, not high. But sometimes I wished to God I was. Why not, right? Everyone already assumes this is the case.’ “And whatever people say, there is right, there is wrong, there is nothing in between.” - Hercule Poirot
