Dayz.. You are not alone and no matter what happens don't let them make you feel like there is nothing wrong.. I agree with Andigirl, it can take some time and even many doctors to figure it out. I have found that Crohns and UC are very difficult to diagnose even when all the signs and symptoms...

Hi Andie and Welcome to the forum.. Lots of information here and lots of friends. The humira club is a thread on the forum. It is located under Treatment .. Good luck with your MRI

No he did not say, just that he felt it was mild, but would know more when he could compare the slides from past colonoscopy testing that she had in VT. Sometimes Dexky I just don't understand there way of thinking. I believe that it is the UC and they just don't want to give the official...

Well Done!! I sure hope this helps with the awareness in children.. They need to put more stories like this on the news. Maybe doctors will figure out children are NOT to young to have crohns or uc

I hope you have a great time at Kings Island Dexky!! Im sure the kids will love it..

TEST RESULTS ARE IN FINALLY!!!!! ACCORDING TO THE DOC.. there was high white blood cell count and inflamation in the colon. He wants to get her slides from VT to compare them before he will give diagnoses of Ulcerative Colitis because he said it was mild right now. He is however giving her...

Dexky, dustykat: he said everything looked okay and that he was able to get biopsies from the area he wanted to get them from. he said there was something in the desending colon which could be the cause of bleeding, but said it is not uncommon in children her age and unless that got worse it...

I am glad that she is doing much better... lots of hugs and love

wow.. your story sounds so familiar to me.. I hope you get some answers so the relief can follow. All the Ped GI docs seem to think everything is normal, or wait they are to young for such a thing.... Good luck

Well Miss Maddie, had her test today and is now back home. She is not feeling the best but everything went good, He was able to get biopsies and said he would call us as soon as they are back. If we dont here from him by Next Monday to give him a call.

Hi lizzie and welcome.. good luck with your testing. Try not to freak out and see what the test say. Everyone respond diferently and not everyone is the same as far as symptoms and pain go. Good luck

This tread gave me a good laugh. I love it and the idea. Dexky is great! Even though he loves to pick on dustykat every chance he gets..

UPDATE from today's GI visit.... The doctor went over everything with us as far as all the testing and procedures Maddie has had thus far and all results from such. Then came the exam which was feeling her belly, listening to her heart beat.. he told us that it is very hard to diagnose a child...

UPDATE!!!!! okay so after waiting for GI to call us back with NO success!!! we went a different route... We got Maddie into a new ped doc here in NH today, The doctor went over the summary that we gave him, until all medical records arrive. He was totally confused as to why the GI doc in VT...
