Default Now Crohn's disease

Had my colon removed the end of last year.

Became severely anemic the beginning of this year and was put in the hospital and given a blood transfusion. Then was referred back to my GI doctor to find out why I became anemic.

Have had endoscopy and pill camera test. The pill camera test showed ulcers in my small intestines. Now the doctor is going to do a sigmoidoscopy on Monday.

He said it may be Crohn's disease.

I feel like Koala...enough is enough!

DH still hasn't found a job.

(((Baxter))) I am so sorry about all this. Let's hope that all goes well on Monday and that it is not Crohn's. I will keep you in my prayers.

BTB

I'm sorry for all your troubles. Wish I could just make them go away. I am sending positive thoughts and prayers to you and hubby.

I hate to see my fr-amily (friends/family) dealing with the tough stuff. Please take care. Keep us posted too. Healing hugs:

Oh, Bax, I'm so sorry! Let's think positive that it won't be Crohn's.

I know you've had more than your fair share of "stuff" here lately and I pray that things will settle down for you.

I hope DH finds a job soon....I know the job market here in the Atlanta area isn't so good right now. Everyday there's more news of layoffs. I'll keep him in my prayers, too, that something will come along that will be just right for him.
