Q: Crohn's and Dizziness

hello

so i have crohn's disease. i was diagnosed when i was 17, i am 21 now. i had surgery because of a bad ruptured abscess. they had to drain it and take out a part of my bowel, about a 2 feet.

ive never been right since when it comes to digestion.

and another problem started to poke its head out near the end of my freshman year, so 2 years after my surgery.

i notice a low lying dizziness that would be constant throughout the day. i could not focus on a single point anymore, my eyes would just divert, and i would refocus, and they would divert. it was very subtle at first and then it grew. now its been three years and it is way worse.

i have noticed that the dizziness is much worse when i am hungry. other than that nothing has any affect on it. it doesnt afect my hand eye coordination or balance AT ALL. its very weird.

ive been through the dizziness clinic in chicago, and they found nothing. i had an mri and all sorts of wacky tests done, but i keep coming up with absolutely nothing.

what could this dizziness be ??????

could it be a blood sugar disorder on top of my crohns .... thats what im thinking.

please contact me with ANY ideas of what this could be.

thank you

leo
