@sunshine, so frustrating. Hopefully the cam comes back with something. @cat feel better soon! @little, I wish these test went smoother for you! It has to be frustrating.

@gd, sounds like I may be on a similar track to find out whats wrong. Did you have a scope yet? My first real test, not just a blood test is on Friday, and its a CT Scan. I swear they are trying to freak me out over it because on two separate occassions the radiology dept has called to ask...

@cat, the amoxicillin is to treat the infection that may be lurking in my fistula.

@Allie, boo for Lupus but yay for getting closer to the diagnosis! @Sunshine, keeping my fingers crossed for you and your test.

So the doc visit was interesting, I don't really like her style but appearantly I don't have any other options (according to my insurance). She basically wanted to write off everything as celiac and IBS. I tested for celiac and it came back negative, so I don't get that. She was writing out a...

Oh Allie, I hope they figure it out. It must be so great to feel like you are making progress. If nothing else hopefully they will be able to treat you for the cause and not the effects :)

@Allie, I added you to my circle on Etsy :)

Off to the doctors again today. Hopefully she will run more test, funny how I am requesting that...I hate the doctors...lol! But I hate more the fact that I just feel crappy all the time.:ybatty: Anyways, if I don't like what she has to say then I might try a different GI. I'll keep you...

@Sunshine! Good luck :) @Allie, sorry that your husband has to deploy, he is making a great sacrifice for his country. @Dahl, your GI doc doesn't accept pres. I talked to the insurance and they won't cover it as a second opinion either! GRRR.

@Cat, I definitely pass gas that way. I have yet to see any fecal matter thank goodness, that probably totally freak me out! @Flower, I haven't tried that. I've been this way for months whats another two weeks?

@flower, I agree. Which is why I made an appointment with the GI doc. It has taken me 5 weeks to get into see her and I am still 2 weeks out from my appointment! So frustrating.

@Allie...Just remember there are some people who are sympathetic of the condition. These people will support you and your fight. Just keep on going and do what you can, you are the only one who make the judgements!

@dahlfacepoet, I am currently going to doctor Virkins. I am not sure about her yet unfortunately. I would love to know your GI doc, is there a long wait time to get in? Do you know if they take pres? Well if they come recommended and they aren't covered by pres then I will probably use them...

@Mayflower, no scopes yet...just speculation about infectious ibs and nothing further. Hence with all the pain and new symptoms why I made an appointment to go back. Hopefully they will come up with something.

I had my first 11 months ago. I am still waiting to be officially diagnosed with Crohn's, but the past 8 months have been a PITA with all the symptoms. We want to have another, but that will not happen until I at least know what is going on and hopefully have some sort of remediation.

I have no idea how I found this forum but I am so glad. I am beyond frustrated with the medical system at this point. For me this started three months after my son was born. I got violently sick where me and the toilet became best of friends for two days. Thinking it was nothing but a...
