Could it be crohns?!


Question: sorry if this is tmi but i need help. 2 weeks ago i woke up with a fever and diarrhea, for a week after everytime i ate i was in the restroom 20min later with really loose stools then it stopped for a few days. this past friday i started not feeling good again severe stomach pains and ended up vomitting with a fever/diarrhea again. its now tuesday night and have had more severe diarrhea and when i wipe there is blood the first time it was a lot almost like a menstural period and less and less each time i go. my diarrhea has changed as well now its more like a mucus and stays in place instead of filling the toilet. ever since this has been going on i have had a loss of appitite and severe weight loss like 13-15lbs. and i have also had some fatigue as well. i have looked up all my symptoms online and it looks like it could be crohns disease. does anyone that have crohns think is sounds like it? or anyone have any ideas? i am going to try and make an apt. tom. thanks for any help

It could be a Chrons, a form of Inflammatory Bowel Disease. It could also be Ulcerative Colitis which has similar symptoms and the mucous you describe.

Id go to the doctor for referral for investigations. Probably a stool sample to rule out infection, and a colonoscopy to diagnose IBD

may bee

Why would you wait so long to go to the doctor? The internet can not diagnose a problem? Step away from the computer and go to the f***ing ER.

may be and may be not...anorexia,weight loss and bloody stools doesnt usualy occur with crohns disease..

I have Ulcerative Colitis, which goes along with Crohns disease.
They have almost all of the same symptoms, i STRONGLY suggest you meet up with a Gastroentorologist, because your symptoms are very very alike with crohns and UC.
Or if you have a history of Colon Cancer, that may be it also.
