May 19, 2011 11:49 pm at 11:49 pm #1137352knowsitallMemberHi! I am suffering from stomach burns and I was wondering if I may have crones. Is there a single test that detects crones?
Thanks in advance
May 20, 2011 12:33 am at 12:33 am #1137353tzippiMemberPity I just found out about this to miss spreading the word. Was there discussion about SCD?
And to knowsitall: talk to your doctor. Maybe scoping’s in order.
May 20, 2011 5:14 am at 5:14 am #11373542qwertyParticipantIf you feel burning in the stomach its most probably not Crohn’s but you should still see a gastroenterologist to figure out what it is.
From what i know there is no 1 definite test to figure out if someone has crohns or not.

April 9, 2012 7:00 am at 7:00 am #1137375Right PathMemberJCCSG whats so hard to understand? You dont seem knowledgeable in this area. There is more to Chrons then diets.
bh18 said that their son has a Ostomy and would like to know more about how to deal with it.
bh18 is right on target as many who have Chrons get a temporary iliostomy. Some people with Chrons get their temporary iliostomy after a resection surgery.
April 10, 2012 5:11 am at 5:11 am #1137376bh18ParticipantThank you, right path! I’m glad I’m not forgotten about. I could use even more guidance now than before Ostomy was placed. My son is not eating over yom tov since he eats mostly white flour products and matzah is dangerous for him. If anyone has ideas please,help us. My son keeps saying how hungry he is and I resorted to giving him American cheese, the least of the worst of his food no-no’s. I will make him sephardic for pesach and try to give him small amounts of rice and my rav said I may and should up give him his soy products over pesach. I could still use ideas and advice and suggestions. thank you. Also, if anyone needs support or chizuk (or non-pesach) ideas or advice with hirchsprungs disease or with ileostomies or related, you may contact me through moderators.
April 10, 2012 8:47 am at 8:47 am #1137377newsreaderParticipantbh18 – my 3 year old son has hirchsprungs disease and we are bh getting to know what is ok for him to eat.
bli ayin hara so far this yom tov he has been ok, he has had a little of both types of matzos, hand and machine baked, and we try and giving him vegetables to counteract the matzos, if the moderators allow it would be nice to speak with you about our experiences.
April 10, 2012 12:17 pm at 12:17 pm #11373782qwertyParticipantNewsreader,
There is a different forum better suited for such discussions its called frum support look it up in google.
April 10, 2012 10:27 pm at 10:27 pm #1137379bh18ParticipantModerators, please ask ‘newsreader’ for permisssion then forward my email address to ‘newsreader’. I would like to communicate with her regarding diet, suggestions, advice and such. Thank you
April 30, 2012 6:23 pm at 6:23 pm #1137380JCCSGMemberBH18 & newsreader if you have a chance please contact me

August 20, 2012 12:22 pm at 12:22 pm #1137383newsreaderParticipantI guess the mods don’t want us to talk together, too bad
August 21, 2012 3:28 am at 3:28 am #1137387bh18ParticipantNewsreader, if you can find a copy of the last country yossi magazine (June 2012 Brooklyn ny) my sister wrote an article titled bathroom blessings. It’s about my son, his hirschsprungs disease, his permanent ileosotmy and mostly about the amazing chessed done for us all over. At the end of the article she wrote an email address we created for people to contact me for support and suggestions. I tried including that email address in a previous post but the mods deleted the post. Pease try to obtain a copy of the article and email me at that address. Thank you
