15 year old diagnosed two years ago with Crohn's basically everywhere and iron deficient anemia. She had an endoscope and colonoscopy and was immediately put in hospital. Going for Remicade every 5 weeks now down from 8 weeks. Also having iron transfusions and not changing the low Ferritin/hemoglobin levels. Had capsule endoscopy recently and GI said he did not see anything)need second opinion. GI thought she had a blood disease, went to hematologist and he said not a blood disease and also thinks she is bleeding somewhere. GI did not order blood occult I had pediatrician do it and it was positive. Should I ask for another endoscope and colonoscopy since it has been two years? Tried to get a second opinion or records review from the top hospitals and our insurance does not go out of state. Hoping Atlanta(CHOA) will have a charitable plan for a second opinion. Thank you
