I have had Crohn's for several years. My arthritis doc said that my arthritis was brought on by my crohn's. At first they said I had RA. I hurt ALL the time. From my neck down to my toe's. He has prescribed hydrocodone as needed and oxycodone only for break a way pain. What is most people taking for your arthritis. My meds help but it also upsets my stomach which in turn bothers my crohns. I feel like I am fighting a losing battle. UNDER a lot of stress and hurting. Do any of you find that stress makes you hurt more?

" Hi Diane,
I have never felt as bad as I do right now. I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 1996 & Crohn's disease in 2011. My Dr.said that my FM was probably related to my CD. The pain & weakness in my hands has gotten so much worse that I am wondering if I have Psoriatic Arthritis. I have yet to see a specialist for it. If you think I can help, you can send me a message.
Good luck to you. "
