Could it be Chron´s that I got?
Hi,
I started to get problem with my stomach for about 5 years ago. In the beginning it was light pain in stomach(under belly button) that lasted about 1 month at a time with a interval of every secon month. After about a year I began to get more severe problems like these :
After a year it got worse (same as above but also) :
This is the examinations that I have gotten so far :
None of them have shown any deviations. Some of these tests was done a couple of years ago while some are done within a year ago. Oh yes, the last ultrasound showed a fatty liver but it was miner and according to my doctor this might be a miss reading.
Thay have also done MRI of neck and hip, all that was found was a small change in low back but that was nothing that could be operated.
I have tested alot of diffrent medicin, for example :
Diklofenak is the only medicin that made any diffrence but according to the doctor this is due to that this medicin is a painkiller. When ending the Diklofenak the pain was back again.
Primperan did help agains nausea.
Saroten/Tyrptizol at low dose (20 mg a day) seems to help with the constant pain under belly button.
I have tried alot of diffrent diets, avoid milk and gluten but nothing have made any change. I have tried excluding alot of diffrent food.
My father has ulcerative colitis or chron´s (doctors do not really knows, have not found anything besides in the large colon). He developed cancer in his large colon right at the appendicitis so thay hade now removed the entire large colon. I say this becous its a risk that I have inherited this disease. None of us smoke.
I have so much pain in my stomach that I often have to sit at home and do nothing.
My gastro doctor have granted a pill camera check but when that is done he will probably discharge me becouse he thinks that there is nothing more to do.
When reading about Crohn´s it does sound much like the problems I got but none of the examinations so far have been able to find it even when I have so much pain.

Thay have also done MRI of neck and hip, all that was found was a small change in low back but that was nothing that could be operated.

Diklofenak is the only medicin that made any diffrence but according to the doctor this is due to that this medicin is a painkiller. When ending the Diklofenak the pain was back again.
