I saw that and it slightly peaked my interest.  Every few months a 'new cure' is found yet no progress is actually made.  I am having more issues with managing the side-effects one of which is a vit b deficiency to which the doctors suggestion is to take oral b complex.  But if I am not ingesting vit b due to damage in my intestine then oral b complex will not do any good, a fact the doctor seems unwilling to accept.

I have found another way though thanks to our German friends

Indeed. Although i think he has set his sights a bit low. I mean, why stop at all diseases when you can cure all poverty, war, famine, slavery and corruption ....... with 8bn.  :|

Finding a doctor who understands and  puts in the effort to treat Crohns in the best possible way, seems to be the hardest part of suffering from it.

Reading the comments below the article it seems that cannabis is the answer!

Isn't that some sort of fancy toothbrush?

Injections are the way for friends with this problem to ensure absorption.

Recently started this despite protestations from my rather inept GP.  Self injecting is not a pleasant experience but better than the symptoms of vit b deficiencies.

Interesting comment from an American, Patrick Cox, (his free email newsletter is worth subscribing to) that closely follows and writes about medical advances and biotechnology. "In 20 years time, the medicines and treatments we have now, will look like the stone age."
