I have a question for those of you who have crohns' and are a parent.
Do you ever get paranoid that you've passed this along to your kids, everytime they get an upset stomach?
My oldest is only 7 and already are family doctor things he has acid reflux. We brought him in after he had a persistent cough that wouldn't go away with any regular treatment. Our doc said that kids don't feel the burn of acid reflux the way adults do they gag more then anything which makes them cough.
He prescribed a liquid form of Zantax and we weened him off of it after about a month.
Lately though he complains alot about having a sore stomach, and had a bout of diarhea that lasted 3 days.
I know i'm probably just over reacting but.. how can i not.??
I can remember being a little kid complaining of upset stomachs and having similiar issues and it always got passed off by both my parents and doctors as nothing unusual.
Does anyone else feel like this or have experienced anything like this??
Just Curious.
