Hey everyone. I went misdiagnosed for four years with Crohn's at my local hospitals. This has placed me in significant debt even after indigent care. In late November 2012, I was admitted into St. Vincent's Hospital after a CT Abdomen and Pelvis with contrast was taken of me. This result put my snooty ER doctor in shock, as if a person barely conscious in the waiting room looking like skeletor with glasses wasn't convincing that there may be a real issue. After two days, a colonoscopy was performed indicating Crohn's Disease. I was given Sulfasalazine, triggers nausea, excess thirst, and vomiting as core symptoms, vs. Asacol, due to the cost of individuals without insurance. Here I am, two years later, unable to achieve remission unless pregnant. Odd huh? To those whom will inquire about diet, I have, indeed, attempted adjusting my diet but nothing particularly causes the flare ups to occur. I eat small portions throughout the day, drink more water than a fish, and breastfeed. On the contrary, I am battling with my new GI doctor to start me on treatment for the disease and medication for the excruciating pain. A CT of abdomen and pelvis with contrast was taken indicating, "abnormalities of the colon." My reaction, ":facepalm:." Yet, no treatment has been given to solve this issue.
Anyway, how is your luck? Any medication recommendations for a breastfeeding mother? Anyone try stem cell research on here? What is your story?
