I have Crohn's too. HOW can it be that medical people are so uninformed? How many doctors for how many years told me it was all in my head? What about the one who told me I obviously had gonorrhea? No question...I had to insist on a test. I didn't have that. But he still didn't bother to test for what I did have.

And now they still don't get it. They don't understand that I go all the time. They don't seem to have any idea. It makes you wonder about your care, doesn't it?

I remember my first colonoscopy...I was in hospital at the time. They did 13 - THIRTEEN - enemas the night before. I, personally, think that was cruel and unusual.
