Fresh theory on cause of Crohn's
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/4740632.stm
I was browsing through this article.I know someone with the disease but they are reluctant to discuss it and the effect it has on them..but they do suffer from severe pain. 
However I have to say I found this article made it much better to understand and to see why maybe a cure has been so long in coming..
I'm also glad to see that they may have found a use for Viagra in treating the condition.

Yes it does seem to prove the theory that we are more susceptable to disease and bacteria as we become cleaner in our homes and environment.
as my gran used to say 'you've got to eat a speck of dirt before you die'

Re: Fresh theory on cause of Crohn's
AS for the viagra, i suppose it increases blood flow to all muscles (no pun intended) therefore making them stronger and able to cope.
Maybe one day a simlar drug will do the same for people with back pain etc
