I Have Had Enough at this Point

Enough of the "butt bleeding" jokes directed at Whitter. I take PERSONAL offence at these as I have been diagnosed with Chrones Disease for the past four years!

Chrones is a chronic ailment of the large and small intestine which pretty much results in weak lining and infection, which means several things;

-My entire digestive tract is shit...utter shit...
-I am extremely suseptible to ulcers.
-I have a low iron count, and thus, anemic.
-I cannot expose myself to extreme mental and physical stress.

I was in the hospital for two weeks running off of IV nutrients in four places and numerous tests...unable to move, unable to EAT, and in constant pain for half the time, and when I wasn't in pain, I was going nuts from boredom. I was on medicinal steroids for over six months...not the "buff-up" steriods those peice-of-shit atheletes use...Predizone, the real deal.

All this because my "butt bled".

So...In conclusion I say...STFU!

Thank you. :sniper:

I agree, making fun of someone because they have a (potentially) serious health issue is really not cool :(

Yeah...tell that to some of the guys around here. They think it's funny. I hate how people can take an ailment, and twist it to humor just because the circumstances of that ailment are "different".

To be fair, he blamed it on fast food.

The whole thing started with.... never mind.

If you have chrones, I acutally am sorry for you, and would never make fun of it.

Whittier, on the other hand, believes he is two shakes from the Rangers, and everyone over 26 has internal 'hemmeriods'.

Pace, okay.

There are many things that can cause people to shit blood.
One is the one that was stated in the first post, another is hemorroids both internal and external.
In external Hemmoroids, the veins which are usually elastic, don't collapse back to their usual shape like they are supposed to. Now, in some people, who don't eat right or drink to many soda's, what happens is that those viens become engorged and lose their plasticity. So that when the blood flow returns to normal, they don't return to their normal shape. They remain enlarged. And when you go to take a shit, the terd which is pretty much hard, cause you haven't been drinking 2 gallons of water a day (sodas, alcohol, fruit drinks don't count, it has to be pure water), the terds rub against those veins and cause tiny tears. And it is through these tears that bleeding comes from. So that when you shit, you get blood coming out your ass.
For some people it is painful. Personally, I first noticed it at 28, but ignored it. Why not? I wasn't feeling any pain or anything from it. When I changed posts, I had it checked. It was diagnosed as internal hemmoroids.
To complicate the situation I had small hernia where the belly button is. That I got in Korea. Why? From carrying heavy equipment on my own, because I have no patience for people who bullshit and don't get the job done. If you ain't going to do it, then get out my way and let me do it.
Now when you try to carry stuff that it takes at least two people to carry, you end up tearing your abdominal walls. That's what happened to me. The tear was located right under the belly button. However, I didn't even know about it cause well, I didn't feel anything. So they went in, and did preventive surgery to prevent the hole from getting bigger. (yes they cut the belly button open). I was in pain for 2 weeks after that. And my abs still haven't fully recovered. And the surgery was in June.
What happened yesterday is that the pain became so great that I either had to double over or sit down to ease it. Cause everytime I stood up, it was like being stabbed. Couple that with the fact that is blood in the stool (stool is the medical term for shit).
So I went back. They said they had to everything over cause I wasn't following the doctor's advice fully. IE...I wasn't taking the prescribed medicine. So basically I have take docusate, which takes water from the body and places it in the bowels to soften the stool. Then I have to take Genfiber which is like Metamucel which is supposed act as an irritant to make the body eject the stool. Then there is this suppository cream that is supposed to be stuck up your ass and supposedly shrinks the viens, or at least that's what it is supposed to do.
And to top it off, they are talking about another rectal exam which I ain't very fond of cause those are painful.

I...don't think that is necessary...I've calmed down, and the person has apologized.

If the mods wish it so, they can close the thread.

Hey Bolol, I have Crohns as well! I have had about 13cm of intestine removed about two years ago, have been great since. Almost died!! I weighed 112 pounds. Sucks when the disease is hitting you hard. Not wanting to eat food, constant pain and weakness.
I have been taking a mess of vitamins, different kinds of oils, acidophilus, iron and so on. It really helps! Also, a bit of alcohaul. I know doctors say don't do it But If I drink a bit of wine after work, or a beer it helps relieve my stress, relaxes me. Now that I drink like that I do feel better. Just don't over do it.
A Japanese diet and eating small amounts has done wonders for me!

It sounds rediculous but also, always be positive, laugh off the troubles you have with it. I do and it has helped me a lot. It has reduced my stress and no matter what your docs say, stress greatly increases the effects of Crohns.
When I was in the hospital they had to feed me with a chest tube. When they put it in it took them eleven tries and they punctured my lung. They were scared shitless I was going to sue them. You know what I did, I laughed, I told'em it was okay because people make mistakes and have problems all the time. Those docs were shocked at my attitude. I laughed and chuckled everytime some rotten thing happened to me because hell, getting angry and pitying yourself just hurt you.
Not trying to lecture ya, just hoping to help.
Rotten disease.

Ah! Good to know that I ain't alone! Unfortunatly the surgery to remove parts of my intestines is out of my reach at this point medicaly (might be to young).

Yeah, I'm running off of all kinds of vitamins and minerals, and steroids like I said. I'm usually a light eater, but when I'm on that shit...damned if I don't eat out the house, 'cause it increases your appetite 3 fold!

I completely disagree.

This is the sort of thing that comedians have to deal with on a regular basis. What one can and can't joke about. I believe you can joke about anything. It all depends on the context and timing of the joke.

Of course, cruel and harsh jokes made at a specific person's expense should always be handled with care if used at all. Friendship comes first.

I had Diverticulitis... a very painful condition where you have infections in your intestinal lining and when they burst... well blood does come out of your butt... but if you're lucky, and the hole is far enough away from either end, then you will live... in pain, but you will live. then there's the eating problem... such as you can't... for 2 weeks I couldn't eat anything... then I could hold down water and other liquids.

I jokenly refer it as my ultimate diet plan... (because I lost alot of weight.) and I can take the joke or three about it, but I do understand that some take joking too far. everyone has to know when to stop.

I consider Crohns God's little joke on me. When I was in high school I was a pudgy little sucker. Rather than exercise and stop snacking I used to pray that God make me thin, well. . .damn. My advise, never pray, you might get what you wished for.

We're talking about an illness here. This is serious stuff me and 31 are talking about here.

Taking it lightly or making a joke about it based on the nature of the illness takes it too far, in my humble opinion.

In no way do I want you to take my disagreement as a lack of sympathy. But I do disagree. It is a comedian's solemn duty to find out exactly where the line is drawn. And step over it.

Oh...I'm not talking about a comedian. I know completely where you're coming from and don't take it personally.

I was talking about an incident which had occured earlier on the board. A rather tasteless string of insults from a person who is not a comedian.

It's great that you're either missing the fact that wishing the death of someone's mother is just as "bad" as making fun of a disease, or you think that this is some sort of ironic thing and rather clever.
