Hey all.

Looking for feedback...

Had my 2nd resection about 23 months ago. Have been doing pretty good since.
Went in wed for an MRI just to see where things stand.

Yesterday afternoon, approx 24h after the MRI, my tummy started hurting. Crohns type pain I have not felt in some time.

Anyone have a bad reaction to an MRI?

Thanks. La.

Crohns Dx. 96
Immuran
2 bowel resections.

What kind of MRI did you have? When I had in the summer, a dynamic pelvic MRI, they injected me w a contrast and gave me a contrast enema. These caused me to throw up for 2 days and I stayed for 2 days unwell.
If your MRI included any kind of contrast, then, def, this might be the cause of your not feeling well. CTs also make me sick for several days.
Hope you feel better soon :)
