The trouble is that although iam not in a flair up with crohns,iam having severe joint pain

due to the medication iam on. There is a lot said about the crohns,but most of all you can

get so much pain in your back and joints,which drags me down especially during winter months.

I dont sleep well at night,and am on morphine for the joint pain,and i get panic attacks in the dark.

So when it gets light,i sleep through to 1 sometimes.The doctors monitor it all and says the

medication iam on causes the bones to become brittle,so i have to have a bone density scan

every 2 years with more tablets.Which makes me depressed,so iam on antidepressants as well

i tell you i could rattle if you shook me.The amount of tablets we take for crohns and joint pain can

cause all kinds of problems if not checked.Anyway just wondering if anyone has the same problem

as its not always your in pain with crohns.
