Hi my name is Tracy hoping for some advice please I suffered with UC and as a result now have a proctocolectomy since 2005,I have been fine bowel wise ever since until September 2016 for about a week I had ulcers right at the back of my throat flu like symptoms fever achy joints could not get out of bed. Just thought I had the flu.Then in January it happened again again I thought flu!,but has also happened Feb and March same symptoms.Went to see the Dr twice the 1st time she put me on antibiotics and I was sent away! Saw a different Dr and he gave me a proper examination saw the ulcers he said with my history and also my 75yr old dad just being diagnosed with crohns it could be be my UC flaring up? I told him all myour large bowel was gone so can't have UC anymore he said you can colitis crohns he called it ? I'm a bit dubious about it my iron levels came back low so had to go for a repeat blood test just waiting has anybody else had UC which 'turned' into crohns? Thank you for any response
