Uphill Battle With Crohn’s

I have a disorder called Crohn’s disease which is a form of arthritis that primarily focuses on the digestive system. It is basically an autoimmune condition where my body’s immune system keeps trying to fight off something that it perceives as a germ of some sort. Many doctors think that the immune system is fighting a virus of some sort, but they don’t agree on which virus that might be. At any rate, I’d been feeling pretty good till last Saturday. I slept for most of Sunday and have felt really dragged out today. Right now, I just don’t have any energy, and my plans for this week have had to be cut way back so I can get some needed rest. I’m so tired of having to manage this stupid disease! (sigh)
