Great news!

You can get Crohn's in the stomach. I hope you get more answers from the Dr. Definitely ask about/voice your concerns about her growth. How tall is she? I have always been short...only 5ft tall and fully grown. I am the shortest in my entire family on both sides. Just wondering if she will be...

I cannot diagnose you, but I do not believe it is in your head. Even if your scope comes out clean you can still have damaging inflammation in other areas that the scope can't see. Keep pushing them to find out what the issue is or get you on a medication that works for you.

Welcome to the forum!

I don't know why he would tell you that. I hope you still push for the scopes. I would want a different Dr I think.

Did you miss too many days of work...putting you on bad terms with their attendance policy??? Are you able to contest the denied claim? Can you apply for disability? Maybe talk to a lawyer if you feel you were wrongly fired.

Great news Dan!

Hi, welcome to the forum. I am surprised they are taking you off Budesonide if you are still feeling unwell. Are you coming off of it or adding Pentasa with it? Not sure what you can do about the job situation...other than look into unemployment or disability. Hope you get the job situation...
