So frustrated!!!

Hi all!!
Got my biopsy back today and got the diagnoses of non specific colitis Crohn's??? and being sent to another specialist my Colonoscopy showed inflammation and bleeding the Gastro would not even listen to me when I told him I have been having more symptoms like joint pain and mouth ulcers he acted like he didnt care and said he was sending me to a different gastro doc. My pain differs day to day but i know i have been getting worse.

I'm sorry to hear of your frusterations Hopefully the new GI will have some results for you and you'll start getting some relief soon...

It is so frustrating

At least he is sending you to a new Doctor! Hopefully he/she will be far more on the ball.

Good luck

:goodluck:

If that doctor didn't care to listen to you, then good riddance. Hopefully you are being sent to a doctor that a)cares and B) can help you reach a diagnosis.
I am sorry you are struggling, I hope it all gets better soon

I am sorry this is happening to you! I used to think doctors were all-knowing medical gods but then I realized that when a doc ignores what you're saying, it's because he/she has no idea what is going on with you. They just can't say, "Hey, I have no idea why you have joint pain and mouth ulcers but I believe they are painful so let me send you to someone else." When a doctor ignores my symptoms, I've found it's time to move on. It's a good sign that this doctor is sending you to someone else. It's almost as good as admitting he has no idea how to treat you and is doctor enough to send you to someone who can help you. Big hugs!!

I'm sorry you're going through this. It is so frustrating. I hope the new doc listens better and is more helpful.
