Crohn's: My Early Symptoms

I experienced several early Crohn's symptoms that were not published in any of the literature or on any of the websites I visited. To increase awareness of uncommon, early symptoms, I share my personal experience with several such symptoms.

5 years later and you're still helping people. Your candidness is very much appreciated. I'm dealing with ulcerative colitis brought on by taking prescribed NSAIDS for chronic back pain. Both of these digestive diseases are debilitating if not controlled. Hope you are doing well today.

Oh no . . . upper abdominal pain, lack of appetite, weight loss, nausea . . . I’m starting to have these symptoms and recently saw a gastrologist. My Mother was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease in her thirties. I’m currently on Prilosec and my ultrasound is normal, thankfully. I hope these symptoms aren’t the start of it for me, but I am trying to educate myself. Thanks for the video.

I have constant stomach pains. It feels like my stomach is pulling from my belly button to my groin area

Thank you for sharing your experience. But did you went directly for colonoscopy or had some early inflammatory markers test ?

Hi, I've had a couple of ulcers and told I have gastritis. There was lots of burning in my stomach and acid reflux. I had a bout of acute colitis and now less than a month after antibiotics I think it's back. But now I'm wondering if it was misdiagnosed. I'm researching the difference between the two and came upon your video. Thank you for sharing. I think I'm starting to figure it out.
