    Should I head to a clinic? Emerge? or wait it out...

    When I had a partial obstruction it was painfully obvious I needed to goto the ER. Waves of 10/10 pain. I'm not sure if this is the same for everyone.

    Entyvio and bruising?

    I literally came here to ask this question. Did some lifting today where the heavy object was resting on my shoulder. I have multiple red marks and it's sore to the touch. I assume it will be bruised tomorrow. This isn't normal for me, definitely will be telling my doc.

    Can anyone make sense of these test results for me?

    I just had a couple of MRI's this week to check that! I was feeling great up until this weekend. Actually gastro wise I feel fine, it's more fatigue and headaches that have me feeling off. Glad to hear my #'s are completely off the wall.

    Can anyone make sense of these test results for me?

    Yes, a leafs fan ;) haha, if you think 9.9 is high you should have seen my last one, it was high 90's! Thank you everyone for the support and feedback. It has helped calm me a bit. It's alarming to see all your #'s our of range, the one I was most worried about was the RDW.

    Can anyone make sense of these test results for me?

    Interesting. I'm currently symptom free and I'm a male so I don't have to worry about a period ;). Are most of your numbers usually in line or are they wacky like mine? I'll def inquire about a dietitian.

    Sticky Medical Marijuana for Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis

    Hey Guys, I know the answer is somewhere probably in this thread but its 47 pages long. Has anyone found a study where CBD OIL (Without THC) has induced remission? or has CBD oil only been proven to reduce disease activity?

    Antibiotics causing blockage?

    My doctor prescribed Flagyl and Ciprofloxacin to deal with an abscesss and fistula. The problem is every time I'm on Flagyl I seem to get a blockage. Is it possible the constipation induced by Flagyl is leading me to have a blockage?

    Should I goto the ER?

    I've had a stomach pain since last Thursday. It started in my bladder I would feel a slight soreness when I 'pushed' while urinating or passing gas. The pain has progressively got worse and I decided to stop eating food as I figured it was a partial obstruction. This hasn't changed anything...
