Here we go again.

With all the travel and stress and burning the candle at both ends, it appears the Crohn's is coming back.

I've been having joint aches for about at least a month now. Then I went to the dentist who found gum inflammation out of the blue. Now my stomach is in on it. It's not bad yet but it's getting worse. The headaches are back, it's increasingly difficult to stumble out of bed in the morning and the fatigue is getting to me. I probably shouldn't complain too much,I've had a pretty good remission going for almost two years, but I probably will. I guess it's time to slow down.

I know I should call the doctor but I have a big decision to make. I really like my doctor. He is a good listener, he never rushes me out of his office or off the phone and he seems to care about my well being. That said, he's a little laid back for my personality, he's not a Crohn's specialist and I'm not sure how much experience he has with extra-intestinal symptoms.

Do I stick with my doctor? Do I find a Crohn's specialist? Do I try an integrative program which combines modern medicine with complementary alternative medicine? Does anyone have any experiences they would like to share regarding a doctor change or alternative medicine? We've got some big stuff coming up and I'm not prepared to have another two year bout with the Crohn's. Help!
