What Are The Treatments For Diarrhea, Distention, Cramping And Nausea Of A Person Having Crohn's Disease?

Oh my...is this a FREE service? Nnnaaaaahhhh, can't be. Well, OK, I'll ask my question anyway:

I have Crohn's disease. I am having a flare up. What are the best prescription medications to treat my symptoms of severe diarrhea, distention, cramping and nausea. I am also a member of the 20% of Chrohn's patients who get severe systemic inflammatory arthritis, and this is incredibly painful at present. Which drugs would you recommend? Note: I follow strict Crohn's diet guidelines, and take probiotics on a daily basis.

Hi, welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe you are up to date in the treatment of crohn's
disease.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms like diarrhea, distension, cramping, nausea, and joint pains, Ranitidine, domperidone, and pain killers may be the mefenamic acid.
I advise you to avoid taking spices, junk foods. also to avoid milk and milk products.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.Thank you.
