Im just telling you guys so you know whats going on. On monday i am getting a Upper Gi with a small bowl follow through, and a bone density test. Not sure why im getting the test done. As most of you know i was diagnosed with crohnes not too long ago (2 or 3 weeks)
 
Yes im male haha, yah ill tell you guys when i get back, ill prolly be back around lunch time on monday
 
I had the upper GI with small bowel to see if the Crohn's was in the small intestine. So far mine is only in the large. It is great that they are looking at everything right away. It gives the doctors a good reference point so they can see right away if your disease is getting better or worse. Good luck! Drink the prep as fast as you can! My tech guy suggested that I walk around to help it go down faster. The faster it gets through your system the sooner you are done. Chugging it is the best way to go.
 
yeah i haven had to have all that mine has been just about only in the colon... which sucks bad, my doc says i am a very unusual case, i never have shown feaver when i was REALLY REALLY infected, only reason i knew something was wrong was because it felt like i was pooping razor blades. When i was first diagnosed they thought it was a tor muscle, come to find out it was 3 holes in my colon all the size of quarters. So be glad they are looking at everything
