hey,

I was diagnosed in my late 20s. It took me a while to get used to everything, I feel like I finally understand my body a bit more and can better navigate situations. But I'm worried my crohn's will get worse and my body will change again and I'll have to learn all over again. Can anyone who has lived with Crohn's for a while let me know if I'll have to readjust as I get older?

Hi @mr305!

Thank you for getting this conversation started. Its great to get a prewarning on how a condition can evolve over time. I'll tag a few members to get the discussion started.

How have your Crohn's symptoms developed over time? Have they gotten worse or have they improved? How do you feel you have grown with your condition? Have you been diagnosed with related conditions along the way?

Feel free to share your experiences.

Take care,

I was diagnosed when I was eight years old. I’ve had two surgeries since then, and I’m out of work because of the severity of it so I would say yes it can but not for everybody.
