Usually yes, the only problem being that crohns can cause fatigue in a few ways: malnutrition, inflammation and vitamin deficiencies. Maybe get checked for iron levels as they are commonly low in those with crohns. You may also be tapering off steroids as your crohns improves, which can often leave you tired.

Once everything is accounted for, get out and about again and hopefully the fatigue will disappear.

Not yet diagnosed. But since food poisoning my calprotectin levels are positive and culture is negative for pathogen and parasites. I also have 2 other immune disease already. Im sure this is crohn. Or some sort colitis. I get attacks after meals and at night. Burning intestine, sore after, cramps and pain and fatigue, muscle pain and dizziness.

B12 and iron was all normal. Im sure its from the inflammation
