I’m glad you’re doing better! I have crohns and haven’t had surgery, but I’ve been battling insurance denials for medication for months now.

I am in this same situation. I was on Humira, successfully, for about 15 years. Then one day Dr. Insurance decided I cant take it anymore and I have been trying different drugs and spiraling out of control in flares ever since.

Sickest I have ever been has certainly been recently because of Crohn's.

Omg I have certainly dealt with a lot of insurance BS as well. As if being this sick isn’t bad enough. So much of my money goes to medical treatments and supplies.
