Hey minigun, check your PM's, I sent you a message. I got crohns disease as well and have been through the same things man. Its such a horrible disease. I got it when i was 19-20 and im 28 now, It was so hard to diagnose for me, cant tell you how hopeless I felt for a while having to go in for surgeries every 3 months and not knowing whats causing it. Went through 6 surgeries, but finally Remicade is what stabilized me. Hope it does the same for you! would love to chat with ya sometime. Ive met other people with crohns, but no ones that gone through what ive gone through like you.
Like you were saying, it really does change you though.

Best wishes and keep your head up man.

As someone who woke up during a surgery where they were sawing in my leg bones to treat my less than perfect legs, but not being able to move or speak but just enduring the pain, ending up with PTSD and all forms of mental issues resulting from it, I totally sympathise with your experience and pain. Stay strong.

There is nothing more fucking infuriating than being in a hospital and being denied painkillers. Happened to me once, even though it was for something very minor, feeling that you got a piece of meat cut with a scalpel still hurts a bit. I really wanted to kill the fucker that told me "pain forges character".
Your case is infinitely worse, and it's just crazy that it can get to that point. Dunno about US, but around here hospitals are understaffed, and the lower tiers of staff are underqualified and/or don't give a fuck. I've got a friend that is studying medicine, and he was shocked at how some services run in the hospitals.
Anyway, hope you'll feel better soon, and thanks for sharing that, raising awareness and potentially saving some asses.

This seems to pretty much be a global problem. Not enough doctors/nurses to help all the sick people

Anyway, please feel better soon, Chad! I know hospital stays aren't fun, have had to help my dad through some pretty painful/stressful ones the last two years or so. You're absolutely right, as long as you make it clear what you need and want, they WILL accommodate you. I hope you don't have to go through something like this again -_-

First of all I'm gonna say that it's funny (and lovable) that you ended this tale with a "sorry"!

But you have to realize that with some diseases, you are going to be miserable. There's no getting around it. Pain meds can get you addicted and (believe it or not) in a worse condition in less than a year. Especially morphine. They can also interfere and combine with the other drugs you are taking (you mentioned one) and screw you up in that way.

I'd be feeling just as terrible as you were I'm sure but still, show some respect for the nurses/doctors. Mothers go through childbirth with horrible pain still to this day for a reason. Do not demand drugs vehemently, just keep telling the doctors/nurses if you're suffering. It's their area of expertise, not yours.

Thanks for the blog, I really hope you get better. My father was in the hospital some months ago, and he had an adverse reaction to the anesthesia. He got the hiccups, and people say things like the hiccups are not a big deal. He had them for over 24 hours, and the nurses and doctors would not do anything about it. He could not sleep, he was in severe pain in his chest/throat, and they told us to wait for them to go away on their own.

He would have been fine after his procedure if not for that, and they did not do anything about it. And then when he needed a second procedure done, they refused to give him a different anesthesia! Hospitals are scary places because they basically have all the control...

I am glad that you were not left alone during this and you get well soon!

Your stream will always be there and your fans too. Don't worry about that, focus on other stuff.

I've chatted with you before about the neurologist stuff, if you EVER want to chat about that or anything related don't forget I'm on your Skype.

Dude that's a horrible ride you had. I hope all this stuff gets figured out so you don't have to deal with uncertainty and feel a lot better soon! Don't worry about your matches or streaming!
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Goddamn, read through all of it. That really sucks. Can't believe how little they care about their patients. Good luck recovering, and I hope the neurologist will find something that's easily curable to soothe your worries.

I have Crohn's too, it fucking sucks. I'm 26 now, and my last major surgery was when I twas 17, a day before I turned 18. luckily I was still admitted to the kid's section of the hospital. it's amazing how much better you get treated. I had a couple other minor surgeries in an adult hospital, and the lady was arguing with me saying I wasn't in pain. basically everything about it sucked.

your Crohn's seems to be significantly worse than mine, ever since I started azathioprine, things have been amazing. feel better man, and that first meal out of the hospital always rocks damned hard!

Get well soon Chad. Don't worry about missing WCS or any of that. Just focus on healing and feeling better. Sometimes you have to put yourself first man. Your fans will always be there for you and you can always try again for WCS.

Get well soon. It's very sad to hear you've had such a nightmarish time these last couple of weeks.. Hopefully you will never have to go through anything like it ever again.
