Just a warning before we start I have left no gory parts out I'm usually shy but I need to know what's happening to me!!
Hi there!! So i just came across this forum and decided I would join
I'm 20yrs old and For about a month (a month ago) I had the symptoms of crohns and a week and a half ago I couldn't handle the stomach pains and throwing up and diarrhea any longer and went to the hospital where they quickly hooked me up to fluids and scheduled me in for a colonoscopy and a few days and nights in hospital with only being on a liquid diet I had my scope done and they came to me after showed me photos of the ulcers in my bowel and said I have Crohn's disease
That afternoon they sent me home with the Pred of 50mg (and too slowly wean off them) taken once a day and panadol and they said the gastro clinic would call me to make an appointment to discuss treatment and basically was told to just watch what I eat. I immediately cut out salad from my diet as well as most milk products and coffee.
For the first 4 days home The pain in my belly was constantly there but my D was becoming less and more harder. And yesterday I had no pain at all and felt great! I could still eat the majority of the food I used to buuut things took a turn for events when my girly things decided to come into play today at lunchtime
I woke up with a "rash" type thing down there (which I assumed was from constantly wiping all the time) like nappy rash. And now i have ulcers in my mouth again aswell as "ulcer" type lesions around the anus and when I need to poo all that comes out is bloody mucous like tissue (looks like blood clots) and it's so painful to pass a bm I'm not sure if my period is the cause of this? I don't know why I was becoming so good and now I'm back in the dumps again
I'm so confused, I have many other questions but this is my main concern for the moment, I would much appreciate any advice please! Tia
