Hi Everyone,
I recently advised via biopsy that I have Crohn's.. Can you guys tell me if this is a for sure confirmation of the disease? It was done via a biopsy of the lip oddly enough.
I have been waiting over 3 months to get into a GI specialist and have always had stomach issues and just thought I had a sensitive stomach.
My symptoms include:
Severe constipation for up to 1 week or 2 weeks and then I will get severe diarrhea for the same amount of time.. I find I only oddly enough get severe diarrhea during day hours and by evening I am fine.. I do tend not to eat anything all day as I work and fear of always being sick at work, which happens most days so now I just avoid it.
As the day progress I start to get super bloated and instead of losing weight it seems I gain it quickly which is odd since I barely eat.
I find I can't have milk, salad, granola bars, fruit, anything and everything makes me sick.
I was just wondering are common things with Crohns?
I am starting to feel like I am making this all up in my head!! if that makes sense is it me telling myself I am going to get sick if I eat and sure enough I try to eat lunch and about 40 minutes later I get sick.. sometimes I get sick after dinner but seems more anywhere for 6 am to 5 p.m.
HELP!!
Thanks everyone for hearing my story.
