Hello there. My mom has had CD for at least 30 years now. She had a flare up in the 80s but she had a resection and she's been pretty well kept under control since then. But in the past year, she has gotten really really ill. She has lost over 30 pounds and cannot keep food in. She is down to 70 pounds and everything she eats goes right through her instantly, so she barely eats anything anymore because of that. She is also in constant pain, which makes everyday tasks impossible. She was finally checked into the hospital on Monday, but after running numerous tests (xrays, scopes, ultrasounds, catscans) the doctors claim that they see no obstruction or anything that should be causing the pain or problems with eating and keeping food in. So, because of this, the doctors released her. My whole family is really at a loss of what to do. She is at a very dangerous weight and she really really needs to put on weight if she wants to live much longer. I'd love some support or suggestions, or anyone's stories if they went through the same thing and how they got through it...thanks.
