Dodie I just have a few questions... what symptoms of crohns did your son show? I have been battling with drs for nearly 4 years and have yet to receive any kind of diagnosis... so i am curious...

moondindigo Thank you for your reply. I will definitely talk to his dr about this. He is actually scheduled for an appt in the a.m. with the pediatric GI. I am sure they are going to want to do the...
Roni Thanks so much for your advice... did you ever take him to GI drs? I am so sick of going to dr after dr... they don't do anything other than tell me to try this or try that... I have tried...
NCOT I know exactly what you mean about being pushed off by these drs. I have been battling with drs for 4 years trying to find or get a diagnosis for my son. He suffers from severe chronic...
MTK957 Thank you for your advice!! I will definitely have to try the clear liquid diet. It really kills me to know that drs today will not search for the proper diagnosis for their patients. Instead...

Thanks Nanners!!! You seem to really know what you are talking about! have you ever heard of "Diverticulitis" (sp?) and if so... what is it?...
Nanners it was my understanding from the pediatric GI that miralax was a stool softener... Is this not accurate? I am taking him today to his regular pediatrician and demanding that they test for...
Tsitodawg, I have taken him to 2 pediatric GI's and they too have dismissed the problem as normal. My son has been hospitalized 2x in the last 9 months to "clean" his system out. The first time they...
To all of the above when i put 45 days that is what i meant. not 4-5. Right now it has been since before Christmas. I am taking him to the dr. today and demanding that some blood test be done. I am...
