Symptoms .... so many, ....... which ones are the worst?

© Susan Johnson

In this article I want to cover the symptoms of Crohn's Disease. There are so many of them and people have different ones all the time.

What is your worst symptom right now...??? The thing that bugs you the most ... drives you crazy.

Well mine, I have more than one right now. I have joint pain that is unbearable at times right now. The other one....... not making it to the bathroom. What is this thing that I am 20 feet from my bathroom and by the time I feel I have to go and get up and take two steps..... oooops it is to late.

My laundry last week had a rather large pile of " special laundry needed". Because of this.

I am absolutely sick of taking a shower ..... instead of going to the bathroom I should just jump straight into the shower.... (just kidding). You have to laugh it is the only way to survive.

Okay now symptoms..... 1. Pain in the lower right quadrant of the abdomen. 2. Cramps 3. Diarrhea 4. Nausea 5. Pain 6. Vomiting 7. Weight loss

Okay if I missed any and I am sure I did feel free to post a message and add them in here.

Most people go to the doctor for the first time with the first symptom... pain in the lower right quadrant of the abdomen and diarrhea. This gets them a colonscopy probably. Why is this pain here??? In my opinion and knowledge of crohns it is because this is where the ilieum is located and that is where Crohns starts in most people. The pain is from inflammation of the intestinal lining.

Cramps: Oh geesh what would life be like without these. In my experience the worst part of the cramping thing is sitting on the toilet for 20 minutes and having these cramps so horrible that you get sweats from them and actually only going to the bathroom a very small amount. I hate when that happens. What causes the cramps. Actually I have no clue. I do not suffer from this so much any more but I can remember in the beginning the days that I did and they were horrible.

Diarrhea: Well we all know where that comes from..... as I said earlier my complaint is the lack of control. I hate it. No wonder I don't go anywhere. The grocery store I use has a bathroom that is easily accessible and it is the reason I shop there. If I walk uptown (two blocks from my house). I know where there are a couple of bathrooms I can get to.
