Undiagnosed for Crohn's disease


Tue, August 13, 2019 4:34 PM

Thoughts on this? 52 year old female just diagnosed with Barrett's Esophagus and colitis in the cecum and right colon. Had several biopsies but gastro appt isn't until Sept 11th. I have been out of work since July 17th due to inflammation and biopsies. Does Crohn's cause bloating, pain especially to the left of belly button, constipation, no appetite? I have sore bumps that turns into bruises on my lower legs. Thanks in advance- just think I'm misdiagnosed.
