Bad Flare

I don't like only blogging when things go badly, but it seems like we are in a serious rut. Our son is at 4.5 months on the diet, and has had two pretty awful days in a row. We're back to the intro diet, which he is losing patience with and going on a hunger strike, and are very close to going back to the Children's Hospital. Maybe a course of prednisone would help get things back on track? I know prednisone makes people feel crazy, but this flare is making us crazy. Going to the bathroom 4 to 5 times a day is one thing, but the blood/mucus is another.

We're still looking for the "bright side" of Crohn's Disease and haven't found it yet after one year. If anyone cares to share their "bright side", we're all ears!
