Does anyone have jejunoileitis?

[gstewart88]

Hi there,

update on the situation. Dr now wants to do a capsule endoscopy ('pill cam') to check for jejunal inflammation.
I was wondering if anyone has this type of crohns and what your symptoms are?

Thanks!

I haven't been affected there personally but I know there have been some members who mentioned it in the past so I know you're not alone. Hopefully others will chime in soon.

I had it, but thanks to a resection no more. For me it was partial obstructions leading to pain, vomiting, bloating, malabsorption, all that fun stuff. I don't think I have much, or any, jejunum left and my ileum has been gone a long, long time.
