I have only posted a few times. I will try to make this not too long.

Strong family history of colon cancer. Always had stomach pains and bowel issues. Approx 6 months ago started with low right stomach pain, I thought it was female related. Went to Drs, he said few mild cysts but suggested it was time to go back for routine colonoscopy.

Started see new GI Doctor. She performed both colon and upper endo due to extreme heartburn and gerd. She told me I had inflammation and ulcers throughout my system. Said we would need further testing but suggested Crohns. Also tested positive for gluten allergy.

Started on treatments (and also eliminated gluten). Nothing is working. Pain is worse in lower right stomach and now back pain directly behind it. Went to ER last week and showing my urine has high white blood cells but no bacteria. Third test in a row, each being worse.

Dr sends me in for another CT scan (one at hospital was a waste of time because they gave me body parts that I don't even have, seriously). Went today, they scanned me three time without contract, twice with it. Said my results were being moved up to priority reading. Scared me. I get copies of everything. They were faxed to me. But my Doctors office is closed till Monday. Can someone help me understand if this is related to crohns or what it may mean.

Everything as far as kidneys and bladder said normal. Said I had 2 milk cysts on right ovary. I have had these before and this pain I feel is completely different and around the clock.

"There is fat stradning the siginoid colon, no thick walled bowel loop or dilated bowel loop." Then it says Note: mild arterial calcifications. I don't know what this means or related to what?

Any help appreciated,

Thank yoU!!
