I guess I need to let you all know that I am doing better. 
I've been enjoying some healthiness lately, and I've been so 'busy' I haven't been able to go to the blog that I reserve for complaining!
So the new treament, CIMZIA, is working!
Praise GOD!  Praise GOD!  Praise GOD!
I had a reaction to the injections (no big surprise there)....and it was a pretty awful 2 1/2 days....BUT!.....the medicine is working.
I still have diarrhea, and lack of bowel control, but I do not feel "SICK".  Hard to explain.  But I can tell the difference.  Haven't had any fish hooks since then.  Plus, I will always have diarrhea and lack of bowel control.  I now have 'short gut syndrome', as a result of having a bunch of my guts removed.  But hey.......God has granted me peace about it, and I am just so blessed at having another chance at 'life'.
So.......next Cimzia treatment is on Tuesday.  I will be pre-loading with Benadryl, in the hopes of averting or minimizing a reaction.
For now......I'm back.
And I am oh so very grateful.
