Using a worm to help with crohn's disease?!

Question: One of my coworkers told me that you could have (i think a tapeworm or roundworm) put inside you to help with the symptoms of crohn's disease. Has anyone heard of this?
Answers:
In a small study, and in cases where it did not respond to ther treatments, yes. http://www.altabates.com/health/healthinfo/reutershome_top.cfm?fx=article&id=19740

Consult with an MD who deals with many Chrohn's patients. There are many treatment options and a specialist in this area is who you should be talking to!
