Re: Disability/chronic illness talk

I have crohn's disease, interstitial cystitis, depression, and vitamin D deficiency. Along with those issues, there is lots of pain and fatigue. Sometimes I can't make it to work, but my boss is pretty understanding. I think he realizes that I could pass out or shit myself in front of people. The real problem is that I rarely feel well enough to go do fun stuff with my friends. I haven't been able to join in with going to concerts or just going to a restaurant and hanging out. So it's kind of lonely when I just have to sit here with my stupid body. My doctors are all working together to find a regimen that will help, but it takes time to find the right dosage of drugs and I'm trying to work out an eating plan that works for me. The IC is really effected by diet, even more than the crohn's. I'm trying to cut out any food that has preservatives or lots of artificial ingredients. That's helped.

That's great that you have a boss that seems to get it. Not so great that you don't feel up to much socially. It's hard when a lot of social gatherings involve standing for long periods or eating and drinking when you don't feel confident that any of those things are going to go smoothly or not make you feel worse.

I hope you find a good treatment plan that works well enough for you to get back to doing some fun things. Maybe in the meantime you can invite your friends to do some less energetic things with you? I find if I organise it, I can plan more rest beforehand and if it's at my place or my friend's then I have food or I can bring food that won't make me feel gross. I do miss a lot of the big group activities though.
