Scared!

[Chuck]

Hi! I've been in the hospital for 6 days with diarrhea,fever and abdominal pain. My stool ruled out bacterial and parasite infection, had a colonoscopy where they found micro ulcers and inflamation,and then they took a biopsy, in my diagnosis is written (Crohn's Disease?). In all my live I never had diarrhea or other symptons and in the days before the accident I think I eat something bad for me. Sorry my English, I am portuguese. Do you think is certain I have Crohn's?

A colonoscopy is the gold standard for diagnosis of crohn's.,and biopsies confirm it.
It looks as if you have been diagnosed with crohn's, sorry to hear that.
You have come to the right place for support and will find many new friends on this forum and lots of information available.

They said to wait for the biopsy, they arent sure but it seems so sure to me

The biopsy result will confirm the diagnosis.
It certainly looks as though the docs think it is.
