Every time you see very optimistic update about that, it turns out to be very misleading (once you read the study results). The thing to be happy about is how many medications are coming out. I've been diagnosed with Crohn's for about a decade, and even in just that time Entyvio (Vedolizumab) and Stellara ( Ustekinumab ) have come out with some really great success.

​

My uncle has dealt with it pretty severely since the early 70's, and he says the difference in treatment between then and now is just unbelievable. It used to pretty much be surgery or methotrexate, maybe a 5-ASA existed, maybe remicade (infliximab) existed.

​

I know I'm not the doctor, but my GI's and the literature I've checked into says we're still pretty far. The medications are going to keep getting better to the point where medicated remission for even the most medication resistant cases is manageable.

If OP tells me I'm completely wrong though you should probably trust them.

You said you're just here to talk, but all of your answers have been short, nullifying, or cliche, and not aiding in opening any kind of dialogue. Do you have any regrets so far? Do you have passion for academia? You mentioned enjoying bio literature, do you have desire to do your own research, or do you prefer to just learn?

Hi! I am finishing up my third year in college with a double major in (Pure Mathematics) and (Applied Mathematics&Statistics). From what I've seen, working for the NSA is one of the few ways that a person can work with cool/real/pure-ish math and get decent money doing it. My question: How do I go about landing a (dream) job with the NSA? What steps should I take? What qualifications and experiences should I try to get first? Finally, do you like working there? Thanks for doing this AMA!

Which AMA was that? Woody?

Undertaker Mankind deserves to go down as one of those matches that just pushed it as far as you could push it. Incredible.
