For the past 3 days, I have been miserable. I really don't know what's going on!

It started Monday, at work I noticed I had been urinating more than usual. After I got home, I was going about every 30 minutes.

Then the stomach pains come. Along with the gurgling noises.

This was still going on yesterday, so I went to my primary doctor. She diagnosed it as an UTI (Which I really don't think that's it) and gave me some bactrim.

Today I'm not urinating as much, but I am in soo much pain.

Earlier after a shower I got reallly dizzy and started feeling nauseous.

I have had no appetite for the past 2 days

what is going on here?!

anyone have any advice? any idea what could be wrong?

I am wondering if the Bactrim is the problem. I think that is a sulfa med, possibly you are reacting to that???? Antibiotics can really do a number on us Crohnies. I would call your doc and describe how you are feeling, maybe they can change you to another antibiotic. Be sure you are taking a good probiotic at least 2 hours after your anti-b's. Good luck!

Yeah I would agree with Nanners. If the pains are occuring because of your Crohn's I would see if your doctor could put you on Flagyl. It's a good med that would help you. It leaves a funny taste in your mouth but it's worth it.
