Hi,
I have had Crohn's disease since 1981. It definitely is affected by stress, I had surgery in Feb 09 and in March started having daily panic attacks that I know were triggered by some complications of surgery. I never thought much abouth the illness, but when the anxiety hits, I become obsessed with the fact that I Have it. I was never like this before, so am very thankful for this program and am expecting great results. Am on week two and find the suggestions and techniques to be very helpful.

I have ulcerative colitis which has almost the exact same symptoms as Crohn's. You should check out the Crohns and Colitis website for more information.

The Crohn's website is a good idea.
Ulcerative Colitis is a terrible disease and can cause severe anxiety, stress and depression. It is too bad that it takes years to find out for sure what you really have wrong with you and by that time you are not only suffering physically, but psychologically too.
I have been suffering since 1997.
