I have Crohn's disease*. It's autoimmune, and therefore not curable. I'm limited to controlling it by taking, no joke, ten pills a day on top of my other pills . . .

Man, I feel old.

DUDE! I have Crohn's too! :D

... Actually, that sucks, but um. Wow!

And you should have been around back in the days when Pentasa was 16 pills a day all by itself, before the 500 milligram ones came out.

I'm sorry about that. At least now you know what it is and how to control it, even if it's not curable.

Um, it doesn't really compare (yours seems to be much more serious :( ), but I got Celiac's disease, which is autoimmune too (solution: no wheat for me. Ever).
