Hello everyone. So I haven't made a post here since 2015 apparently. Believe it or not I didn't even know I had an account on this site until I was signing up a few minutes ago.
Sorry for this long post but please bare with me.
Anyways here is my story and I need a small bit of help. I am a 15 year old male. About 4 or 5 months ago I became constipated and I had blood in my stool. Not coated around the stool itself but separately. So I ended up going to the nearest Clinic. The doctor there took a Urine sample from me. He said there was no sign of bacteria. I also have a skin tag around my anus. Anyways the doctor said this is probably just some sort of infection and gave me a lubricant to use in my anus, some sort of a liquid to get rid of my constipation and gave me Metronidazoyl. (I really hope I go that right).
I took all of the things the doctor gave me and then about 1 week later I started to have really bad diarrhea. It was also bloody. So I went to the clinic and they took some blood tests and stool tests and they said that my Iron and blood levels (Hemoglobin) is very low hence the reason I am very pale and weak. They also said my stool came back positive for blood. This time the doctor sent me to the hospital. Long story short I was hospitalized for 4 days and they brought me in for Upper GI and Colonoscopy. Honestly the doctors hand writing on the report is so bad that I have no idea what it says apart from the fact that it says "Very Poor Prep" or something like that. But the doctor herself said that she saw patchy inflammation on my colon and it could either be Crohns Or UC.
She put me on a liquid diet with ensure plus drinks.
I also have allergy to Cows Milk as well. If I eat or drink anything with Cows Milk in it my lip swells up and goes red. But before all of my symptoms arised I used to go to Mcdonalds and I decided after nearly 10 years of getting Big Mac's without cheese I should try it with the cheese. I ate it and I didn't get a single symptom at all such as my lip swelling up or anything. So I decided to get the big mac with the cheese from then on and so I did. Suddenly 4 or 5 months ago my symptoms started showing as I explained above.
My question is could this all be due to my intolerance to Cows Milk and I kept on eating the cheese but it didn't show any symptoms from the outside but it kept damaging my colon and resulting in the inflammation? I keep trying to get in contact with my Doctor as well but she never rings me back so I am completely lost.
