Quick history- 3 yrs ago I was in the hospital for 9 days with a flare. CD was found in two spots no longer just the TI. Have had trouble getting into remission.
My thoughts are my Dr is going to easy with the meds. My history is consistent each flare that results in steroid use- I flare again about 4 weeks after I stop them.
So this current mess stared with my joints, CD related?, now for the cramping and diarrhea. Dr wants to do a colonoscopy- I can't afford it right now and don't tell me you question the Dx.
I am now unable to eat anything but toast and tea. This is for the last 10 days. Also new to me about an hour after I have my "meal" I feel a soreness achey feeling on my right where I know my CD was first found. I feel it in my back and from the abdomen. Then a little while later I feel the same on my left side. The end result is either the cramping and big D or urgency and lower cramping.I also am pretty nauseated.
I am having a CT scan on Monday- am I being paranoid, I was thinking stricture
?
Any advice is greatly appreciated
