Crohn's Disease

[Whiteroom_Guardian]

I finally found out why I have felt like a bucket of dicks for the last several years. Supposedly, slight abdomen pain, chronic sore joints, constant fatigue, and only shitting every 3 days or so isn't normal.

Luckily my doc calls it "designer Crohn's" because I only have ulcers in my Ileum. Been on Entocort since Wednesday. Hope this works.

Any other Maggots with this crap?

if you are still consuming dairy try a month or more break and see if it helps!! often there is a psychological aspect that may require introspection!!

What is weird is that I randomly developed a milk allergy two years ago. Not lactose intolerance, but legit allergy where my throat started to swell up, etc.

After that I developed a bunch of other allergies I never had before. Anyway, I have been totally dairy free for 2 years.

I would take issue with the idea that Chron's has a psychologic cause, if that's what you're implying. If you mean that having chronic abdominal pain and having to worry about your bowels constantly can mess with your head, no argument with that.

What kind of ab pain ? Low near your front hip area ? I have been having some issues like that but have been thinking its stress.

Pain all over intestinal area at times but mostly about 2-3" to the right and below my belly button. This is right where the ileum and appendix are located. My doc found two ulcers in my ileum when she did the colonoscopy.

Its like a dull pain nagging pain. Sometimes it feels like I have glass in my guts.

Kind of sounds like what i have. My initial first pain was like a searing pain on my waist line. I ignored it for a while. Finally went to the doctor for blood work and I have elevated bilirubin and calcium. i still have to go for an ultrasound on my stomach. Pain has been less to non existent for the past two weeks.
