There is always HOPE!!

Well I'm just sitting here at home relaxing. I've been to the gym twice this week which was the first in about 2 weeks. Since around Christmas I've been dealing with symptoms from a slight flare up of my crohn's disease some days are better than others so it's touch and go. I went to the doctor on Jan. 5th and he said my crohn's is active again and he recommends a more aggressive treatment of drugs. We'll see how I feel by Jan. 21st when I see my regular after her return from vacation (other doctor I saw was my doctors colleague in the office). I'm not to excited about having to go on the treatment he is recommending which is infusion or injection treatment. The drugs can be a plus and a minus. Ideally the vitamins I am taking now will help put my body and cells back into balance that will take care of the underlying issues of crohn's disease. I keep my mind hopeful and positive in beating this and not being on long term medication treatment. That is my ultimate goal anyway. The medication I'm on has me really fatigued so my energy levels suck big time. Next week I believe I'll be feeling much better to get back on my training regimen again so I continue my journey of getting back in shape and my health back on track. Just fighting the my energy levels is the major task for me. I will keep you all poted of my status.

I always am grateful for everyone's support in my journey & battle with my disease. You feed my motivation to keep going and never give up. I believe there is always HOPE!!

Best wishes, have a great weekend.
