Crohns symptoms ?
Posted: 04-15-08 13:18pm

Hey everyone,

I am at home right now visiting for a few days and my mom who is 48 has Crohns disease. She is sick in bed right now and has had the stomach flu "or so we believe" for about 3 days now. She has been throwing up and hasn't been able to eat anything. I am really worried about her and I think that the throwing up has something to do with her Crohns, but Im not too sure. Could it just be the flu? or should she be getting medical help?

I am going through all the unanswered posts right now. Yes, this could be part of the desease and then again it could be a flu also. With Crohns it is hard sometimes to differentiate between both. Loss stools are a common thing with it and you really can't go anywhere right after you have eaten anything cause it runs right though you. I myself have collitis and am in agony sometimes. Started off with a nerves stomach as a child and advanced.
Has she been to a doctor or emergancy room yet? If not, I would not delay. Take her and get some help with the diagnosis.
