So my referral for Shands came through today, but I almost feel like it'd be a wasted trip. From what I've read, Entyvio is supposed to be the best thing out for IBD right now, but my parents keep reminding me about Sterlara. At this point, I feel like I'm just bouncing around from treatment to treatment. I'm afraid I'll get the answer that this is as good as it gets, but I plan to call on Monday and make an appointment anyway.

Spent the better part of my day in a Benadryl coma and it wasn’t until I asked whoever was talking to shut up that I realized I had fallen asleep watching The Golden Girls, so I hope that gives you a little insight into my life. Also, my port didn’t work today. Go figure. Who even knows at this point. 

My referral for Shands, a hospital that’s the best in the state for GI related illnesses, came through today. It’s located in Gainesville, about three hours from where I live, so it’s more than likely going to turn into an overnight trip, but hopefully this will mean better answers coming soon. 

I haven’t posted in a while. After being diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, my symptoms stemming from that, going back into a severe depressive state and trying to deal with my Crohn’s symptoms at the same time has made life kind of....shitty as of late. No new info to add. Just trying to not give into all of my self-destructive tendencies. 

Thinking of live-blogging or filming my infusion this friday. It sounds good in theory, but it would probably weird out my nurse lol.
