HGH and Crohn's Disease

[nosnmiveins]

i have had crohn's for the past 8 years (im 21 now). this past march i had a small bowel re-section because none of the medications worked anymore. my bowel was leaking and caused an abcess.

it is now months later and i've never felt better. but i have read some articles here and there about HGH with crohn's patients and how it can keep people in remission and just promote a better since of well-being and healing of the intestines.

how can i go about talking to a doctor about this? i do not have a primary care physician, but i do have a gastro doctor. what sort of questions should i ask?



thanks all for any responses!

I did a search for you on pubmed and the only thing that came up was

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez

according to the article, the person using HGH and had crohns disease ended up with HIGHLY MALIGNANT colorectal cancer.

This makes sense since in crohns disease since ur colon is inflammed. and constantly inflammed tissues are at a higher risk of malignant transformation (for eg. people with chronic GERD, are at a higher risk of esophaegeal carcinoma since there esophagus is constantly inflammed from the stomach acid.) Now adding HGH to this allready inflammed tissue which is the first step for malignant transformation might be like adding fuel to the fire.

If I were you I would not take the risk, and there is no way your gastroeneterlogist will prescribe you HGH for this. Just because HGH is synonym to positive things in BBing industry doesnt really mean it would help with colitis.

I would think AAS might be more helpful then GH to hold on to your muscle mass and things like that. Good luck

once again my advice, dont mix HGH with Crohns please.
