pillcam results

So i just got part of my pillcam results and they told me that they think that my crohn's is in my stomach because i have ulcerations and narrowing in my stomach whatever that means. And she wants to see me in her office to discuss what else they found and what we need to do next. So i would like to know if anyone else has crohn's in their stomach and and info ppl can give me please. I honestly thought that this test would come back normal like all my other test so i think i am still in a little shock lol!!

:hug:It's always stunning to hear the diagnosis-you always think you're prepared, but then WHAM!

I have had Crohn's in the stomach. First the doc thought it was h.pylori or else the worst case of ulcers ever. At the time I was given pred and sulfasalazine, and acid reflux drugs, can't remember which ones. I also drank George's Aloe Vera juice and took extra Vitamin A.

It was very painful; eating was hardly worth the pain I went through, I lost about 20 pounds in one month. It took forever to heal, I also had it in my sinus cavity and throat as well. Please keep in mind that was 24 years ago; obviously with Remicade and many other drugs your results will be much different and I'm sure you'll get relief sooner.

Did the doctor examine your mouth, nasal passages and your throat also? Have them look, you may not realize it's there as well.

Well, at least you have a diagnosis and hopefully you'll find some sucessful treatment soon! Sending hugs your way, and keep up the fight!

how did you know you had it in your nasal passages and mouth and throat did you get sick often?? Cause i am always sick and i am always told i have abnormally large tonsils and my adnoids should be removed because i am always sick. I have constant migraines and i was just curious if this would be related or not thanks for the input!!
