I have been diagnosed with mild crohns and put on enorcort for 8 weeks. The Gastro wants to start me on biologics, I'm a little nervous to start this line of treatment.

Hi Daisy,

I was diagnosed with Crohn's five years ago and have tried several medications with no success. I was reluctant to start biologics but I was so poorly that I was desperate. Within eight weeks of using Adalimumab I felt a huge improvement and am now at the three month mark feeling really good! I know it's daunting but the bad definitely is massively outweighed by the benefits for me.
