This would indicate that this gene may have come through a distant relayive. I was adopted when I was one or two from Switzerland, all I do know of course if it is so that one must have this gene (or genime) Before I was yen, I had showed no symptoms. When I was ten my first undications or symptoms began when I was ten. Like now I have had Crohn's for 7 years now (I am now 17). I think in my case environment must gave triggered this in the beginning with me. Hopefully I am not tooyoung to have been taking infusions with Remicade and now with Entyvio. It only now has helped up to my guess about 75 to 80%. I still have relapses or glare-ups some leading to some very unexpected embarrassing public diarrhoea accidents. I am rather curious whether Entyvio shall eventually come out as capsule or tablet form rather than to be getting infusions 6 times a year.
