What is so frustrating more than anything is that this disease did not exist, I assure you, a couple of centuries ago. If it did, it was in small quanitity. It makes zero sense why ones own immune...
From what I understand, ct enterography is the gold standard for radiographic diagnosis, and in circumstances where colonoscopy, SBFT, or pill scope fails they do ct enteroclysis. Ive personally had...
Thank You very much mam. It means so much.....
I have not been diagnosed with anything yet, but I am wondering aloud what the pain feels like with UC flare up.. is it different than a crohns flare, and how is it different?...
I do not even know why they bother with those inflammatory marker tests. Just do the scopes and have a ct enterography done. The top four diagnostic tools are: scopes, ct enterography, pill scope,...
Oh, I see. I am so frustrated because ive had both a barium small bowel series that came back normal and now this ct enterography that came back normal, but I feel far from normal. I have a scopw...
Just wondering if this is unusual or not.. Ever since I had to drink all that stuff my stomach has had mild pin like pain that was not there before....
I agree. That is why I am hammering away with some of thr strongest probiotics around....
I am definitely listening to your theory about my current condition. Here ia my problem though: before the antibiotics I had no food flare ups, ever. I never had chronic fissures/hemorrhoids, and I...
I've been using renewlife mega potent brand abd I haven't pooped in awhile. That usually means my stuff will be great tomorrow!! Lol...
Very good point Myrne.. I believe if we can trace back to when we first started seeing symptoms we can understand how to fight it our own individual way. Mine was from antibiotics I know it. I can...
That is odd. What is your diet like? I try to eat nothing but organic and attempt to stay away from all sugar except my parents honey they make at home from their own honey-bees. I eat sweet potatoes...
What did you do after the antibiotics and c diff? Hopefully you loaded up on probiotics like it was the only thing ypu wanted to do. Ive been stuffing 150 billion per pill of a stronnng probiotic and...
My wife's uncle has ulcerative colitis and has been in remission for YEARS.. His words to me were exactly that, "stress"....
Strange, because I can connect each of my flares to fried catfish, and red meat. I eat one of those and BOOM.. I stay away, I get better. I dont trust anything the medical field claims. I trust my...
Here is my two cents worth. The gut has more gray matter than the brain. The gut brain connection is tied together tightly knitted. I must ask myself, "Why would my body fight my stomach for no...
Well, I am a new Crohn's victim. I am not to the point so many of you are today and I am going to say a special prayer for every one of you tonight. I believe it will strengthen me and remind me...
Very informative and appreciated. I honestly believe that antibiotics caused me to develop crohns. Unreal. Fried foods are triggers and red meat, but before thr antibiotics I was fine. Go figure. Ive...
I was wondering what was the cause, if any, that brings a flare-up on?...
Kazbern what caused you to flare up in november 2014?...
I assume your MRI was an MRI enterography?? I recently had a CT enterography myself. When you say a lot I assume you are referring to up to 10 times a day withoit being able to hold it. Kazbern as I...
How were you diagnosed may I ask?...
A lot of my problemproblemsmys have began to surface all over: stomacbstomach to lower intestines. Do not know if it is the stress or what. I appreciate your words....
But what about weight loss and post antibiotic treatment? I personally believe that after I took the antibiotics my gut flora got out of whack and now it is overrun by bad flora. It has been a slow...
Thanks for replying, I appreciate it kindly. They did the endoscope and biopsy to test for h pylori again. At this time I was not concerned about Crohn's so they did not see the need I assume. My...
Obviously I said too much in my intro. I apologize. I truly was looking for some answers, hopefully....
Was the ct scan done with a contrast and dye? Those are remarkably accurate and only misses things that are small or by certain chance. I had one done recently myself and it came back normal, but I...
Hello everyone, and I want to first tell everyone that ive read many posts on here to gather information before ever stepping out to speak about myself.. Secondly, I want to tell everyone I honestly...
