I was diagnosed with Crohn’s Disease when I was 11- years old. Before I received my diagnosis I was told that it was all in my head. I struggled with fevers, vomiting, diarrhea, and extreme weight loss. Many doctors later, I was eventually referred to a specialist and finally, I had a diagnosis. I was admitted to the hospital and for many years the doctor maintained my health with medication.
In 1995 I had surgery to remove a portion of my small bowel. Fast forward 2012 I had another major flare-up and was admitted to the hospital, after significant unwanted weight loss and all the usual suspects of Crohn’s Disease in tow.
I decided this would be the last time I would ever get sick again and decided to be the master of my own health. I started doing research and came across the Autoimmune Protocol a.k.a. AIP and I healed just from doing diet and lifestyle changes. I no longer need medication or surgery to keep my Crohn’s under control. It’s my goal to show women diagnosed with an autoimmune disease how to decrease symptoms and put their disease in remission.
Let me inspire and empower you to put your symptoms in remission and regain back your health!
