hi everyone
hello everyone, well my story started most like some here, when i was younger.. sigh i been in and out of the hospital most of my life from being really anaemic, or from terrible pains in my tummy... when i was 18 i went to military doctor in new york and he pretty much told me i was lieing about the pain and its all in my head.. lived 2 more years with the pain but it wasnt as bad as now.. i had my son whose almost 2 now, and after i had him my body just went crazy and i been in and out the emergency room for the whole of last year.. all i got from them was really stong pain relief but nothing to make the stomach pain go away for good.. the ending of last year i couldnt deal with it anymore so i decided to go to the military doctor where i live now and she was concern, she sent me for numerous test and low and behold in 2 days she gave me meds that actually work ( sulfasalazine aka azulfidine).. those meds were a blessing and i haven't had any problems with my tummy since.. she wanted to make sure she was right and last week i went to the gastro doctor who did a colonoscopy and he told me that i had crohns... i dont have it as severe as some but i still will have to take the pills most of my life.. i want to say if anyone has it severe version of this, god you are in my prays, because with mines i couldnt even move once the pain hits.. so i google this site to have some one that understands what im going throught, and feel like im not alone..
