Howdoes one who has crohns survive?

I have Crohn's too, I've had my descending colon removed through serious infection, and have a colostomy. I'm on heavy medication, and on a low fibre diet constantly. I'm not the best one to answer, as I've become anorexic, but you really need to speak to a dietitian, there are supplement drinks you can have on prescription, which are full of the nutrients you need, I used to take supplementary pills too. I drink plenty of water, as I dehydrate easily, fizzy drinks are a big no-no, as is anything containing milk for me too. Peppermint tea is good for settling the tummy.
