Diagnosed with Crohn
Hello!
I started having terrible stomach pains two weeks ago. I was going to the bathroom 8–9 times a day, if not more. At first, I thought I had a stomach bug, but it just wouldn’t go away… I finally went to the doctor and had some tests done. The results came back today: I have Crohn’s disease.
I’m now waiting for calls to schedule appointments with specialists, but in the meantime, I didn’t really know who to share the news with… I’m not even sure how to react myself. I feel like my life is going to change completely, and honestly, it scares me. I’m 37 years old … i didn’t even know you could develop this disease at my age.
Anyway, sorry… I didn’t really know where to write this, but I needed to talk about it.
Ps: i used ai to translate sorry but english isnt my first language and i wanted it to be easy to read.
