It's Crohn's disease.

I'm not sure of the proper response, to be honest. How about: Yay! A diagnosis!

Well... at least you know what you're up against and hopefully a proper treatment can be devised.

I'm with [livejournal.com profile] gabrielleabelle... but it really does help to have a diagnosis, and that usually means they at least have an idea on how to go about treating it.

Och, I'm sorry. I have lupus, so I know how hard it is to go through months of tests not knowing what's going on and getting a diagnosis like that at the end. If there's a support group in your area for Crohn's Disease or general autoimmune disorders in your area it might help, especially because people who've had it longer can give you better tips on how to manage it. Best wishes!

:(

I hope knowing what it is means that you'll get the proper treatment.

I'm sorry!

*Hugs*

But I'm glad you finally have a diagnosis, and I hope that with proper treatment you'll be feeling better soon.

More *hugs*

:( I don't know anything about that to be honest, besides a quick Wiki I just did. But, um, good on figuring it out?

Well, crap. Now you know what you have, I hope management is going to be quick and hitch free.

Always good to get a diagnosis. I hope things will settle down once the conditions is properly managed. There are a couple of other people on my flist with Crohn's and they seem to have it reasonably under control.

There are probably LJ comms too where you might find more info.

So sorry and I hope the meds start working right away.
