Hi, my name's Max i'm 9.5 years old. I first had stomach aches at about September of 2008. Then, by christmas I started having really bad pains in my butt. My dad took me to the doctor and they found out I had a fistula.Then, the doctor took blood and ran other tests and found out I had crohns disease.since then, I have been having seviere stomach aches and have been on many meds including pentasa, 6mp, prednisone as well as multi vitimin,iron, and fish oil pills. Lately, I have been feeling better,my fistula cleared up and i have little pains in my stomach here and there.
I really enjoy reading all of your storys and im happy to be part of your community.
I hope you all feel better soon.

Welcome to the forum Max. I am so sorry to hear that you have to have this disease. It is never a good thing and to have someone your age being diagnosed is a real heartbreaker.

Just remember that you can always jump in and ask any question you may have and someone will help you with an answer or where to go to get it.

Hi Max~! It isnt fun to have this disease so young... but looks like you are on vitamins to help your body grow healthy wise. If your tummy is sore a bit, stay away from dairy products and junky type foods, they can cause irritation and pain. Your parents are wonderful to get you help so quick.

I also see you want to build your muscles, good man! We also have body builder here and he will have some competition now . Welcome to the forum, so glad you have you here with us!

Hey max! good to hear from you!

wow your 9! i wish i could have got on a forum when i was 9! i was 8 years old when i got sick, and like you had to have lots of tests and start on lots of pills, but the doctors finally got a diagnosis and could start giving me the right medicines, i was lucky to have such great doctors and hope you do too, they will get to know you and your disease very well and hopefully be really helpful as you grow older like me

glad you are feeling better, rememeber if you want to ask any questions just go ahead!

hope to hear from you soon ,
