Just got back from a long couple weeks of many hospital visits and tests. My son developed some urinary problems which advanced to abdominal pains a couple weeks ago. To make a long story short it sounds like he may have afistula but even after doing MRI, CT scan, and colonoscopy can't find it even though all the symptoms point that way. Since my son was diagnosed as a child he has been seeing a pediatrican Crohn's doctor but now both parties agree that we should get a second opinion about his current diagnosis since they might have a different way to treat his fistula if he does indeed have one. The current doctor and a poster on here already recommended the University of Chicago group but they aren't in my insurance plan and since we live in northwest suburbs the hike would be long. Does anybody know of a good Crohn's doctor on the north side of Chicago and since he most likely will be attending University of Iowa in fall a doctor there also. Thanks in advance.
