if you haven't tried it, try marijuana for symptom management.

I don't know if this is common knowledge or not, but I want to get it out there in case it wasn't. I know in at least my state of Connecticut both Crohn's and Ulcerative Colitis are eligible for medical marijuana cards. Weed helps tremendously with the pain, and a lot of the light day to day symptoms.

Has anyone else had similar experiences?

I haven't had any major symptom overhauls with MJ.

But, I think something it really improves is the monotony of being unwell.

I'd suggest it, even to just take a break from the bullshit that is being always ill.

If it happens to give you a break from symptoms too then that's a damn bonus.
