Help, diagnosed IBD Crohns changed to IBS east coast usa
Was diagnosed with Crohn,s in my 20s, then again, 2008, 2008 and 2012. Changed docs, had colorectal cancer 2006 with not such good results, CT shows folds in stomach and small intestines, barium swallow similar. Now, arthritis, also have "tag" bleeding, LRQ pain, slow transit, abnormal BM, fecal blood, on and on. I can barely move due to pain. As soon as they mention a job, or my pain, it makes me cry! I can't help it, I've lost my job and activities, thus, now IBS and no Crohns meds. No GI doc in this area will treat me or look at previous scans. I live in NC, would it help to go to VA or SC? The harder I try, the more desperate I look and become! Now, no Crohn's meds for 3 years, falling apart. When I call a doc, they want my records and current FP who thinks I have IBS based on current opinions without tests. Help!
