Hi guys..I just got diagnosed with crohns today. It all started with a lower right abdominal pain that felt like a knife. I was told it may be an ovarian cyst and sent for an ultrasound..when I got to the ultrasound the tech told me my appendix is inflamed and there is a partial blockage in my bowel and sent me straight to the ER. A CT was done at the hospital and they admitted me. They kept me for 4 days on antibiotics then sent me home for another two weeks wih more antibiotics to bring down the inflamation and remove my appendix...I went back to emerge with pain and they ordered a colonoscopy....my terminal ileum and sigmoid and appendix are all inflamed and it is a bad crohns flare...I know nothing about the disease or how to manage it and I am waiting for my follow up to get medication...any suggestions on diet to help calm things??
Thanks!
Thanks!
