This may seem like a funny question (and one I want to review with my son's doctor) but I'm still a little fuzzy on what the exact definition and diagnosis of crohns is.
My son had a colonoscopy last spring and, as I understand it, the crohns diagnosis was a combination of a review of his symptoms, a visual of portions of his small intestine and colon, and biopsy of tissue samples. Though my recollection is that it is still sort of a judgement call.
I'd appreciate hearing what people think.
Thanks.
