Crohn's Disease cure?

Ok the title is a bit much, but hopefully this gets read by someone and actually helps them out. I have Crohn's Disease, and am pretty lucky in that I don't suffer from it that often. I have suffered though, and am currently in the middle of a flare up.

Like most other victims I've been through the scopes, and various medications with poor results. The medical community has never impressed me, and with this particular affliction, you really have to take it upon yourself to do what you can to live with the symptoms.

In my search for respite I've come across two things that I want to have on record. First : AMP. This is Aloe Mucilaginous Polysaccharide which is an extract from the Aloe Vera Plant. There are a number of companies putting out this supplement, I chose Gastric Gold, and I have to say that I have never been so shocked about ordering something off the internet. After the first day of taking it, all my abdominal cramping pain and blood disappeared. I still have diarrhea, but whatever... already it's far more than I could have hoped for.

I can't stress enough how well this worked. I had gone through a lot of pain and sleepless evenings while taking Salofalk, which seemed to help a little at first, and then do nothing for 10 days of taking it.

I am on my 3rd day of taking Gastric Gold and god damn it I still have no cramping or blood!!! I don't know that it works for everyone but it seems to have worked for me and I would have no problem pointing anyone in the direction of this product.

Secondly, I want to mention POT. No kidding, this is something that might be overlooked by a lot of people, but before I found AMP, I was smoking to relieve the cramping. It's a known fact that marijuana has anti-cramping properties, and it works immediately. I found much relief with it . The unfortunate side effect is the high that comes along with it, so you might not want to go to work, or do a whole lot of anything really, but it does do a lot for the pain.

The whole time I was smoking I was thinking what a crime it is for it to be illegal while it does so much for the pain of Crohn's. I realize this might not be for everyone, but if you are reading this and haven't tried it, there is something to think about.

I hope this helps ... take care.
