migraines regularly , sinus problems, nasal drip, cramps in leg, joint pain, side pain , bad sleep, Yellow in corners of toe nails. Hemorrhoids, switching from Hard stools, to loose.. and even felt what I though fast heart flutter.

What DO YOU GET--- or have now???

I get migraines when I'm on prednisone or if I'm flaring badly. I get leg cramps and hip pain, also from either pred or flaring, but I'm pretty sure the pred. Pred also gives me bad insomnia.

I definitely have hemorrhoids.

I have chronic sinusitis that I think gets a bit worse when I flare, and I use a flonase nasal spray for it.

When I'm flaring sometimes my heart will race if I do too much (like walk up the stairs, lol).

I stayed in remission after colon surgery for about 1.5 years. When I had my first post-op flare, it started an ongoing arthritis that's been nonstop for 11 years. My joint pain is in my hips, shoulders, neck, wrists, and back. The shoulders and back have injuries/scoliosis so that's no surprise that they're affected.

I also have chronic rhinitis but don't know if it's medication or CD. I've wondered if my gallstones were related to the Crohn's but probably not. I occasionally have CD-related episcleritis.

I was recently diagnosed with PVCs (premature ventricular contractions) but I've been having them for several years. We're not sure if that's medications, old age, or what; probably a combination.

I got roughly three years of remission from my surgery. I've been flaring on and off for about a year. I have Fibromyalgia now, so I have everything that goes with that, so much pain, tons of sinus issues, depression, anxiety, allergies...more than I care to deal with for sure.

perianal proto-fissures (they're fissures, but aside from one or two spots, the skin doesn't actually break. just hurt like it's about to) all the time, but if I'm feeling better they'll start to heal and be less irritated. Lots of skin tags and anal bleeding. Mouth sores. Ulcerations all through my stomach and esophagus. A cyst on my right testicle, as well as a fluid sac nearby that occasionally fills up and makes my fella tender. swollen feet/ankles. hands occasionally get all flushed and slightly swollen and feel like they're sunburned (even if i was never exposed to sun at all!). Extreme fatigue, frequent light-headedness, and occasional fainting. Reduced appetite/stomach capacity.

and that's just the stuff i have to deal with. all sorts of internal nonsense going on, like anemia.

Where I was going with this.....is FOR me... I fought many of these for YEARS.. hemorrhoid banding , nose bleeds sinus issues migraines etc then got crohns

I know I sound like a repeat record...... and all of our cases are different!!!!!!
but for me crohns was one thing... all these other symptoms when I researched them and cross checked things.. pointed to YEAST. if you look up yeast over growth ( this isnt a female thing) you can have all this and more. and why I say this ... IS if you have crohns, or colitis you have antibodies...I had all this before....and it got worse then I got crohns....I noticed a pattern. look at the link i pasted here ... If you know what you are reactive too it will be listed here.Most of all of us have had some testing....if you havent you should get it. MOST people are reactive to ASCA which is bakers brewers yeast... most of our diet is breads grains , pastas and beer... or was when we were ok... Others can have AMCA which is candida yeast. Yet we are not giving meds to combat this... For me I was AMCA
when you have crohns you usually have more then one antibody reactive for me it was ALCA which is sugars... look at the table in the link you will see reactive markers .. A good doc should have tested you in many of these. If you havent had one I would do it... Today Im am lots better and all my hemorrhoid banding , nose bleeds sinus issues migraines etc are gone.... and My AMCA and ALCA are now normal and my crohsn seems to be under control and I dont have any of these issues. For me this test is a diagnosis not a cure.. I feel its a good thing and tool to use. I did something strange , I took anti fungals not antibiotics.. and this stuff cleared up..I cant say Im cured!!!! as none of can. I feel like I am-- and all the other stuff went away.. I say this in caution not to affend others... many of the antibiotics are mold or mytoxions as well cause yeast to over grow..

I say do this (IBD EXPANDED PANEL at labcorp if your in the USA Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Expanded Profile test#162045
it tests several antibodies AMCA ALCA ACCA ASCA you may get some markers here and more of a reason
why your having symptoms

for me it seems like almost yeast might be the cause of the problem .... then bacteria leak in making us sick.
then we all start getting these food intolerances...

just strange that most of the people who have all this have many of the same symptoms and antibody markers for alot of us are YEAST.. yet they only treat the bacteria when they leak in and make us sick...
