Allright, so my name is Miley and I am 19 years old. I have been diagnosed with Crohn´s disease back in November.2012, and with Celiac disease some months after.
I have been having symptoms for 4 years (lost 15 kilos (33pounds) in 3 moths solely because of diarrhea which caused weakeness in my body resulting anemia) and nobody could have figured out what it was. One day, I noticed blood in my poop and I was terrified because doctors always told me that if there is no blood that its ok, and up until then there was none. So in October I was hospitalized and the best doctor in our region did my kolonoskopy, gastroscopy, and after it he told me that it looks like crohn´s, so I was released home with a therapy of Nizon,Salofalk,Imuran, and there was soo many other but I cant remember.
Month later, the results came in and they all asummed it was Crohn's,but nobody was sure because it wasn´t clear I think.
So after six moths I did kolonoskopy again, and so they saw another sign of another disease and it was celiac. I did got bloat in my stomach because of bread but I never realised why so it kinda cleared it up for me.
Now I am taking pills Folacin,Salofalk, Imuran and some other supllements. All in all I am feeling well, and I do not look like most od Crohn's or Celiac disease patients thank God. I am 176 cms and weigh like 66,67 kilos(which can be changed in days of flares where I can lose up to 5 kilos in one week).
The biggest problem for me is the bathroom, and going places, because of so many years of diarrhea my bowel muscles have loosen up so I need to find a bathroom in minutes and I really do not want to tell what happens if I don´t so... :S
