a "are you kidding me!?" moment

i went to the gastroenterologist - finally - at ucsf and was told that the 20 pills i currently take (and have taken since i was 14) can easily be reduced to 12. she wrote me three new prescriptions and handed them to me.

i nearly cried.

it took six months for robert wood johnson (supposedly the leading specialists in crohn's disease in new jersey) to get their act together and transfer me to this doctor, and i gotta say it was absolutely worth the wait.

ive been taking 20 pills (that don't really make me feel any better) and nothing changed.

i feel at ease.

maybe, in the future, i can even feel... dare i say it - healthy?

fingers crossed.

love and loyalty

...ok so maybe i did cry a little.
