Living with crohns and ***

[Bubba]

Hi
I have been living with familial adenomatous polyposis for 30'years and now have crohns and am wondering whether anyone else out there has been challenged with both these diseases. I have a long family history of *** and only my immediate siblings are still alive with it but none have crohns. Little scared so I thought I would see if anyone can add some insight to the combined challenges.

I appreciate you taking time to read my inquiry.

I am sorry to hear this Bubba, what are the plans as far as medication? When was your last scope?

Hi Bubba and welcome to the community.

I don't know that I have read of anyone on here having both *** and Crohn's. Have you had your colon removed out of curiosity?
