Confused about diagnosis

hi all, i have been up and down to doctors and had multiple hospital visits, after all the results i was diagnosed with diverticulous, IBS, Proctitis,Cholangitis, to date i have not been told i have Crohn's, however, i have all the symptoms, fever, fatigue, joint pain, eye inflammation, bile duct inflammation, i have been given pentase and thats it? Now i go back on Wednesday and i dont even know what for? I am so tired, i am in constant pain, constant abdominal tenderness, nausea, just generally dont even want to get out of bed! Any suggestions?
 
I have had colonoscopy, gastroscopy, mri, liver biopsy, bloods,ct scans, i am currently on pentase, clopamon, probiotics, nexiam and pain tablets. TODAY, my joints are killing me, my back and shoulders are so sore, feel as if i could just stay in bed.
 
Go back to whoever prescribe the medicine for you. I supposed it worked before, usually medicine stop working after a while. Also I will suggest you go to a rheumatologist. I hope you feel better soon.
 
Maybe the side effects of the meds causing you to have the joint pain.

When I was on steroids I had pains all over specialy in my knees.
 
Well, got an appointment with Donal Gordan Research Centre and a rheumatologist next week. More tests...lets see how it goes.
