afternoon all
i hope somebody can help. ive had cD for 15 yrs now,had 2 ops and amcurrently on infliximab and azathioprine. ive only been on inflix for 2months and had a great response to it but thelast few weeks ive been gettin a bad ache at the top of my tummy by the diaphragm (which is the are i was told i had active crohns) i also get severe back ache the gastro dr told me yest tht this is not crohns related!! as i havent gt the cramping pain and its an ache!! my argument is i have always had 2 symptons ...1. being the bad cramps and pain and the other being this ache along with back ache ...this is not a new symptomand have had it as long as ive had crohns! the dr said its not inflammation symptoms??? hes taken bloods to check this. they seem to think that because i responded to inflix i cud not have a flare up so soon.
the question i would like to know is....when crohns is active is it always inflammed??
and has anybody else experienced and ache rather than the cramps along with back ache ??
