New Post(possible crohnie)

[kaykang]

so about 1-2 months ago. i started to suffer from diarrhea and indigestion. always had gas in my stomach after i had food. i just ignored it thinking it would go away but it did not. i made a visit to doctor, took some antibiotics and also changed my diet. a week into chaing my diet, it seemed like my diarrhea stopped. i didn't have diarrhea for a entier week but i started gettin pain in my joints (knee, ankle, wrist). also got a severe sore throat with fever. i went back to the doctor, told him the diarrhea stopped for a week but i started gettin pain in the joints, he told me i could possibly have crohn's disease. right now i can't really walk because of the pain on my joints. and can't really eat anything cause of the pain on my throat. so i dont know if i still have diarrhea or not because i really haven't ate anything since i made a last visit to the doctors. Could this be crohn's? going to see a GI this week to find out.

Hi kaykang and :welcome:

I'm glad you've posted in the My Story Forum, It's good to see you here.

Could it be Crohn's? Well I guess it could be, many people suffer with similar symptoms. It's good that you're going to see a GI this week. Remember before you go to write down questions as you think of them so you can ask the GI when have your consultation.

I hope all goes well and please keep us posted as to how things go.

All the best,
Dusty

Hey Kay, welcome. Is there a possibility that you were having adverse reactions to the anti-biotics you were on? Do you have any tests scheduled or is it just a consult?

Come back to let us know what the GI says. Good luck!
