Nikki, Crohn’s Colitis

I am a GI nurse in an endoscopy department, and I have Crohn’s colitis. I was having up to 30 bowel movements a day that were waking me up throughout the night, joint pain, night sweats, incredible crushing fatigue. I was recommended for a total colectomy, but since joining Systema, my Crohn’s has completely turned around. I am living my life again. I have normal bowel movements. I can eat. I have an appetite and I am keeping my weight on. I can work and come home and still make dinner for my family.

My calprotectin went from so high (over 8000, 99th percentile) it exceeded the lab’s range, down to almost undetectable at 43, which is incredible.
