Hi Neevy35 and a very warm welcome to the online community
I'm sorry to read that your Crohn's disease is very bad at the moment and I can understand why you'd want to talk to others in the group who have both breast cancer and Crohn's disease.
I've had a search in the group and can see that Deb2019 posted about having both 7 months ago. I have tagged her into my reply to you in the hope that she will pop on and share her experiences with you.
While your waiting to see if you get a reply it would be great if you could pop something about your journey so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
