Q: What are the symptoms of Chrons disease and Ulcerative Colitis?
Something isnt right with me lately, (this is my symptoms) I have abdominal pain for 1 month now in the same area (lower right side) and pale yellow diarreah that is sometimes once a day to ten times a day…I am constantly tired and in pain.. they ruled out appendicitis, cysts, a hernia, and bowel obstruction….they think i might have one of these disorders listed above, I have a young baby to take care of and I feel like crap, any information would be greatly appreciated thank you!

A: I would look up either Celiac Disease or since you have a baby: Endometriosis. Look those up. They sound like your symptoms. But don’t worry, these are treatable!

Good luck and I hope this helps!

Q: What symptoms do Crohns disease and ulcerative colitis share?

A: Diarrhea (bloody diarrhea is more common in UC but can appear in CD)
Stomach pain & cramps
Fatigue, dehydration and weight loss

Q: Symptoms of Crone’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis?
What are the usual syptoms of these illnesses, how similar are they to each other and how can they be treated? Is ‘bowel removal’ always necessary or can it be managed without having to have this drastic operation? I need as much advice as possible please. Thank you in advance.

A: Crohn’s disease is a chronic transmural inflammatory disease that usually affects the distal ileum and colon but may occur in any part of the GI tract. Symptoms include diarrhea and abdominal pain. Abscesses, internal and external fistulas, and bowel obstruction may arise. Extraintestinal symptoms, particularly arthritis, may occur. Diagnosis is by colonoscopy and barium contrast studies. Treatment is with 5-aminosalicylic acid, corticosteroids, immunomodulators, anticytokines, antibiotics, and often surgery.
Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory and ulcerative disease arising in the colonic mucosa, characterized most often by bloody diarrhea. Extraintestinal symptoms, particularly arthritis, may occur. Long-term risk of colon cancer is high. Diagnosis is by colonoscopy. Treatment is with 5-aminosalicylic acid, corticosteroids, immunomodulators, anticytokines, antibiotics, and occasionally surgery.

Q: Do i have Crohn’s Disease or Ulcerative Colitis?
Okay i asked my doctor about this and he thinks i have Crohn’s Disease but on the other hand he thinks i may Ulcerative Colitis. Here are my symptoms..

Go to the bathroom about 4 -5 times a day with blood
Never had any pain
Don’t have fistulate or anything on my skin (rashes, marks)
Lost some weight
was never annemic
My entire colon was inflammed
just a little bit of inflamation on my illieum but not enough to cause anything.
Never had a fever nor vomitted
Never really felt sick

Do these symptoms sound like Crohn’s or Colitis disease? Hope you guys can help!
Well my rectum area is inflammed and i do see a GI specialist. I’m not so sure if he is a good one though because he doesn’t seem to know a lot. I did get a colonscopy and the doctor said it looks like you have UC. But after doing this one test in Cali they determined i have Crohn’s. It’s very strange though because i don’t really feel like i have crohn’s, i mean yeah i go to the bathroom a lot of times but it’s not like i feel terrible. It’s just annoying and the only reason i go to the doctor is because there’s blood. Anyway after the colonscopy i do have relatively mild – moderate inflammation. I’m on remicade right now and had my second infusion one week ago. So far i am going to the bathroom 1 – 2 times a day. There is still a little bit of blood but nothing like before. Do you think this remicade is working on my so far or after two infusions i should be healed by now?

A: hi henry, as a crohn’s survivor I can tell you that Crohn’s can and does affect anywhere in the digestive tract from the mouth, esophagus, small intestines, large intestines, rectum, and anus. A colonoscopy & biopsy plus Prometheus blood work can properly dx what you have.

The Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of America has a website you can go to find the necessary info you are looking for plus they have a live chat & a hotline that is run by healthcare professionals.

Are you on any treatments now such as Remicade, Humira, Entocort, 6MP, or Imuran? You need to be on something for the inflammation.

Some ppl are lucky with their illness as they aren’t in much pain or they are put in remission after being on medication and staying on it.

Good luck to you.

Q: I can’t define, which one is right crohn disease or ulcer colitis because symptom r almost the same?
I have been discover to have it after the barium meal where dr is trying 2 diagnose it

A: Crohn’s disease.
is a chronic, episodic, inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal tract characterized by transmural inflammation (affecting the entire wall of the involved bowel) and skip lesions (areas of inflammation with areas of normal lining in between). Crohn’s disease is a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract from mouth to anus; as a result, the symptoms of Crohn’s disease can vary between affected individuals. The main gastrointestinal symptoms are abdominal pain, diarrhea, which may be bloody, and weight loss. Crohn’s disease can also cause complications outside of the gastrointestinal tract such as skin rashes, arthritis, and inflammation of the eye.

Ulcerative Colitis
colitis is a disease where inflammation develops in the large intestine (the colon and rectum). The most common symptom when the disease flares-up is bloody diarrhoea. You can usually prevent symptoms from flaring up by taking medication each day. When a flare-up does occur, treatment can usually ease symptoms. Surgery to remove the large intestine is needed in some cases. Colitis means ‘inflammation of the colon’.
Ulcerative means that ulcers tend to develop. An ulcer is a raw area on the lining of the intestine which may bleed.
The inflammation and ulcers in the large intestine cause the common symptoms of diarrhoea, and passing blood and mucus.

Symptoms are Diarrhoea. This varies from mild to severe. The diarrhoea may be mixed with mucus or pus. An urgency to get to the toilet is common. A feeling of wanting to go to the toilet but with nothing to pass is also common (tenesmus). Water is not absorbed so well in the inflamed colon, which makes the diarrhoea watery.
Blood mixed with diarrhoea is common (‘bloody diarrhoea’).
Crampy pains in the abdomen.
Pain when passing stools.
Proctitis. Symptoms may be different if a flare-up only affects the rectum, and not the colon. You may have fresh bleeding from the rectum, and you may form normal stools rather than have diarrhoea. You may even become constipated, but with a frequent feeling of wanting to go to the toilet.
Feeling generally unwell is typical if the flare-up affects a large amount of the large intestine, or lasts a long time. Fever, tiredness, feeling sick, weight loss, and anaemia may develop.

A doctor can look inside the colon using a special telescope (a short sigmoidoscope or a longer flexible colonoscope. Separate leaflets describe these tests in detail). The appearance of the inside lining of the colon may suggest UC. A small sample (biopsy) of the colon is taken and looked at under the microscope. The typical pattern of the cells seen with the microscope may confirm the diagnosis.

A special X-ray of the large intestine (barium enema) may also be advised. This can help to show how much of the colon is affected.

Q: Any pregnant ladies out there with Crohn’s Disease or colitis?
And just wondering how you are doing during your pregnancy?

I had a major flare during my first pregnancy, and minor symptoms during my second. I went into remission for almost two years and have been having problems again during this pregnancy, but I think it’s more due to pregnancy than the illness.

Were any of you flaring during delivery and did you have a vaginal or opt for a c-section?

A: Hi. I have mild crohn’s disease and I flared up a little with my first pregnancy and this one. I strongly believe it has to do more with the pregnancy…maybe the hormones because it happens much more when I am pregnant as opposed to when I’m not. I haven’t had our 2nd yet and I flared up a little during delivery with our first. I would never get a c-section unless I had to so I had our son vaginally. Good luck

Q: Is ulcerative colitis link with depression?
I want to know if depression can make ulcerative colitis symptoms worse or cause the person to get out of remission of this terrible disease?

A: Anything that causes pain can cause depression. If your hurting physically your going to feel depressed. Now if your depressed and having anxiety, then it can cause the acid in your stomach to build up and thus give you an ulcer. My best friend is suffering from a bleeding ulcer, and her’s flares up whenever she gets upset. She usually ends up throwing up. She also suffers from depression.

Q: Chrons Disease Ulcerative colitis IBS.?
I was wondering About Chrons Disease and Ulcerative colitis and IBS. My friend has symptoms that are similar to all of these. Shes been in so much abdominal pain lately. What were your first signs. What happens.When to seek help… I would really like to help her out. Any stories would be appreciated

A: Your friend should really consider going to the doctor. The symptoms of IBS, and all forms of colitis (Crohn’s, collagenous, lymphocytic, etc.) , celiac disease, lactose intolerance, soy intolerance, casein intolerance are all very similar. Tests need to be run to rule out (or in) what her issue is. Please tell your friend that her best option is to see her doctor and then ask for a referral to a gastroenterologist.

Q: Crohn’s Disease/Colitis – A little upset?
Alright so, my problem is that I might have Colitis or Crohn’s disease. Thursday I woke up with a stomach ache and it kind a little worse over the day but it wasn’t really bad, I’ve had worse. I had a little bit of cramps too. So I got a fever with it around 8:30 and my mom took me to the ER to get a check up, and about 30 – 40 mins being there my stomach ache was virtually gone but my mom wanted me to go through with the CT Scan they originally were going to do. So I did all the stuff they wanted me to do before it, drank some water with some weird stuff in it and got a blood sample and they gave me morphine and IV for some reason. After the morphine I felt like CRAP (Bad dizzyness and woosyness) then about an hour later did the CT Scan, they found out I didn’t have what they thought I did which was a appendicitis, but my doctor said I have a slight inflammation in my intestine which could indicate colitis or Crohn’s disease, then the next day I woke up with a bad stomach ache but I think that might of been from all the crap the hospital gave me because my arm was also in pain from the IV and stuff. I woke up today and felt almost 100% better but now have a little discomfort in my stomach (No pain at all, just feels kinda weird) and have a little diarrhea, but my doctor had prescribed me a stool softener (don’t need to take it now) and also gave me vikidin, which I have no idea why unless he thought my stomach ache was THAT bad but it wasn’t at all. So I’m going to take some medicine tonight (probably some diarrhea type like Pepto bismal) and see if my stomach ache is gone completely tomorrow (It’s been getting ALOT less worse over time)

but basically my question is, what chance is there that I have Crohn’s disease or Colitis? And if it turns out I do is there any severity to it? I’ve been reading about it and said it’s not that bad of a disease, and it’s possible to have remissions(periods of time you have very little or no symptoms at all) for months/years at a time, and the worse thing you would experience is a bad flare-up, so if I do have it is there any real thing to fear? (I don’t mean like death or anything) Just like severe pains or anything? I’m kind of shakey at the moment and I know I shouldn’t since my doctor doesn’t know for sure, but how hard is it to deal with this disease with your life?

I’m going back for a check-up maybe around Monday. And I turned 17 Dec 8 if that helps.
My doctor didn’t say specific Colitis or Crohn’s disease, he thought I had appendicitis at first, but took the CT Scan and said I was perfectly fine (everything with me was including my blood and all that) the only thing was I had slight inflammation in my intestines, no blocking or anything. And he said it could indicate either colitis or crohn’s. And I’m going back for a check-up soon and I’m going to ask my mom to tell them to get those specific tests done for me to check if I do, and I don’t have to worry about my weight for now, and I’ve been eating alot lately (nothing has upsetted my stomach so far) Just to make sure. And no, I don’t have a bad pain in my stomach, as I said just a little discomfort like stomach ache feeling, but I think that’s caused from the Diarrhea since I usually get a stomach ache when I have it.
And about the pain meds, yeahhh. My mom was really shocked when she saw the prescription, she doesn’t even want to give me the medicine (I’m not gonna take it) she said she’ll only give it to me if my stomach ache gets excrusiatingly bad, but if it gets bad enough to where I need vikidin I think I’d rather go the ER instead.

A: hi xx, I am a crohn’s survivor for many yrs. dxed at age 12.

If you check out the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation’s site, they have all of the accurate information you are looking for such as treatment, diet, surgery, coping, as well as locating a local support chapter near you as well as a hotline, live chat, and an open forum where you can post questions to others who have IBD (crohn’s or UC).

If you are in pain, you are entitled to be made comfortable until things are under control.

Definitely check out the site. It’s worth it!! :)

Q: Sick from 2006 till present .Colitis ,mineures Disease , Hyper Hydrosis , can they all be related?
Medical History , Looking for the Relation of my symptoms and maybe some insight into them. I am at the end of my rope and doctors dont seem to care.

I am a 23 year old male . I was born with Cerebral Palsy and premature . The CP effects me by way of minor motor skill impairment and effects my left side more which makes me walk pidgin toed etc. It is spastic cerebral palsy which makes my muscles more tense then usual.

I also have asthsma which was bad but barely comes and goes in the recent 5 years of my life.

I was on paxil from 05-06.

Feb 2006 About three months after stopping . I woke up one morning to being almost deaf in my left ear vomiting and having severe nausea. The docotor diagnosed me with Mineures disease and started me on prednesone for one week and did tympanic steroid injections which brought back most of my hearing in my left ear but i have constant tinnitus which flares up and fades since then till now .

I then developed constant sweating under my arms they labeled hyperhydrosis . Previous to this i never even had to use antiperspirant because i was not a sweaty person.

I then developed Colitis in December 2006 . I Battled with constant diarrhea and constant watery stool . I had severe weight loss and mal nutrition . I went from well built 185 pounds to about 150 pounds and looked like somone who was on chemo therepy . The doctors said they thought i had a yeast infection in my bowels so i started on a yeast cleanser . About a year later after taking probiotics daily a strong multi vitamin and eating very healthy .The Symptoms stopped

Now within the last week. All the symtoms are back . They did a wheat gluten test . I am not allergic. They found my white blood cell to be high .

I started on cipro floxin 2x a day for 10 days.
Flagyl 250 mg 3x a day for 10 days
Benyl 2 x a day for ten days.

The medication seems to be working but .

I have acne on my face and some on my body which i am the kind of person to have a pimple here n there randomly but nothing serious.

I have become very pale and EXHAUSTED! I am sleeping 12-13 hours a day between work n school and at night and I look like when i had insomnia. My eyes are black underneeth and all iwant to do is crawl in bed.

I was wondering . if any of these symptoms could be the effect of another disease that could tie them all together .

It just seems to me that they all seem to go off at once .
I was fine for a year leading a normal life with only my ear ringing still quietly etc.

Now i have a roar in my ear , Upset stomach , Im restless etc

Can anyone help me , or think of what i can do to get an answer?

Saw a ENT who diagnosed me with

A: Wow, I really feel for you. I’m not a doctor, but I read a lot of medical stuff and I wonder about the Paxil. Symptoms of each of the issues you present with can be found with Paxil use or withdrawal. Did you have a physician supervise stopping your use of Paxil? Not extremely common side effects for most of them, but you can check out the Paxil info: http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/parox_ad.htm (This is the same info you can find at the GlaxoSmithKline website, you can download a pdf there.)

The other sort of connection I see is that it’s possible they all may have some sort of neurological link. Your CP is most likely from brain injury due to being premature — or CP can actually happen in utero and issues before birth may be the cause for prematurity. (My teen son was born at 23 weeks, and I’ve done a lot of research on prematurity.) CP can show up in all parts of your body (even affecting eating, digestion, etc), so I wonder if somehow there is some sort of connection. It is not uncommon for preemies to have issues show up as adults. Two you should watch for are high blood pressure and mental health issues. These are most common in the earliest preemies but possibly can happen in preemies who have issues like CP.

I’ve decided it’s better to know all this stuff even though I don’t like hearing it – because I can act on it. I know I need to keep a watch on my son’s bp more than I would if he weren’t premature and also his mental health and make sure he’s not having too much stress in school, etc. Better to be aware.

Did the doctor check your pituitary gland?

It seems like you need to see another doctor, maybe at a big health center where they can easily send you to a doctor in a different department if necessary. I don’t usually like teaching hospitals, but you might find help at one. Think UCLA or a similar facility in your area.

There are different types of the issues you mention, Colitis, Meniere’s, and Hyperhidrosis, it may be important to know which types you have to know how they may be connected.

I would also suggest looking on the internet for support groups for each of these issues and see if you can find anyone who is going through what you are. Please be careful of the scam cures and misinformation you’ll find online.

Can you work on controlling your stress levels? It appears all of those issues may be affected by stress. Walking is a great stress reliever, and you might want to try meditation, yoga or anything else that would work to release your stress.

Take care and good luck in finding the answer.

Q: Uncontrollable twitching w/Crohns Disease or Colitis Normal?
I have been told by a doctor that I may have Crohns Disease or Colitis. I’ve looked up the basic symptoms and have MANY of both. Is there anywhere that gives the more detailed smaller symptoms? ( Tonight, my hand was twitching and I couldn’t make it stop, anyone know if that is normal or known of with either?) Sometimes my whole body gets shaky. I haven’t read that anywhere! I’m real worried, plz help!!
*I’m not on any medications

A: Hey there. Chrons disease and colitis (or more specifically ulcerative colitis) are two diseases that fall under the category of inflamatory bowel disease. These diseases are not of the same nature as irritable bowel syndrome. There are many systemic symptoms for both of these disease, but I am not familiar with hand shakiness being one of them. May possibly be something unrelated such as anxiety (certainly being recently diagnosed with a chronic illness can be anxiety provoking). However, inflamatory bowel diseases affect so many different systems, and can lead to malabsorption of things like vitamin b12, folate, and iron, deficiencies of which may cause the symptoms you describe. You need to have your blood checked for these by your family doctor or gi specialist.

Q: Which disease is most likely, Crohns,coeliac or colitis?
I’ve been looking on the net and i think i’ve got either Crohn’s, Coeliac disease or Ulcerative Colitis, though im not a dr and it could be something else. Which one do you think is most likely these are my symptoms.
I’ve been ill for last 11 weeks now with a stomach ache almost all the time, my appetite has gone, im struggling to eat and i’ve lost over 2 stone now. Im also exhausted all the time, im not normally a lazy person but im needing around 15 hours sleep a night now. Also sometimes i feel like i need the toilet but nothing or some mucus comes out (sorry i know thats sick) and i had diarrhoea until a few weeks ago. I’ve had a gastroscopy, ultrasound, baruim x-ray as well as blood tests and a stool sample, im not lactose intollerant and im not stressed. And i’ve taken 3 different medications incase its IBS and neither have helped. I dont know what it could be and i’ve hardly been able to leave the house for 11 weeks. I’ve also noticed if i have fatty or greasy food it makes me a lot worse.If it helps im 21, dont smoke or drink either. Thanks a lot

A: hi jezz, i am a crohn’s pt. for 28 yrs. when I was 12, I was tested for it but everything was normal as well but my GI went with his instincts based upon my physical symptoms, fatigue, low grade fever, bleeding at times, the big “D” or “C”, abdominal pain, etc. He gave me the dx of Crohn’s and started treating me accordingly. A few yrs. later, when I was really sick, it finally showed up on a scope.

It is a tough illness to dx. There is a new blood test out cld Prometheus. It is used to dx a pt. with either Crohn’s or UC.

For more information on IBD, check out the crohn’s and colitis website. There is also a live chat, a hotline, and an open forum where you can post questions. hope this helps. feel better

Q: I have a bowel disease, can i still join the Australian Defence Force?
I’m 19 and i have a bowel disease called have Ulcerative Colitis. It is completely under control, i have had no symptoms for over 2 years. My bowels work just as well as anyone else’s. However i take 4 tablets on a daily basis. Does this mean i can’t join the army? Does anyone know anyone in the army with a bowel disease?

A: Ulcerative Colitis is an autoimmune condition and stress would aggravate it. New job/lifestyle, new living quarters, away from family and loved ones, possibly in another state – things to think about.

It would be best to ask The Australian Army directly, incognito of course.

ps – I know you said it ‘is completely under control’ but are you following an ‘anti-inflammation diet’ ? If interested I can give you something to read.

Q: I am 23 years wondering whether I have colitis or ciliac disease?
I had bloody stool and diarah. My favorite food was cheese pizza.
I did not have any flare ups or any of the above symptoms for the past 2 1/12 years.
Once I have adpated gluten free / diary free diet all the above symptomps subsided, and I am feeling fine. Is it possible that I was misdiagnosted??. My only present symptomps are:
feel tired at times, I still have loss of hair , dandruff , I have checked my iron; it is normal on the low side. At times i get skin rashes.
2 1/2 years ago when the Md. did a colonoscopy, he was amazed how clear my colon was. I have been prescribed to take 8 Salofalk per day, however I have been taking only 4.
At this stage should I pursue testing for Celiac. I know of Colitis sufferers, who follow my diet, however continue to have the bloody stool, bloating and diareha. I am wondering whether I have been lucky not having any symptoms or misdiagnosed

A: Yes, if you have Celiac you need to know it so you can continue on a gluten free diet. It’s possible that you only have lactose intolerance. But do go for testing. It’s very important. Even if you are not having problems right now, your doctor needs to determine what your problem is if it is not Celiac. Your food is so important in your life and for your health. You need all the nutrition your food gives you to be absorbed into your bloodstream for nutrition, so be serious about your health. It is important. Once your health is gone, your life isn’t valuable anymore, so do what your doctor tells you. Good luck to you!!!

Q: What is the difference between ulcerative colitis and chron’s disease? And how bad are colonoscopies?
My doctor suspects I have one of these two diseases, and I have a colonoscopy next Tuesday. Here are my symptoms:

bleeding from rectum
mild to moderate eye inflammation (it is true, I went to the eye doctor)
bright red stool
dark, almost black stool
green stool
a combination of all those colors in my stool
mucus in my stool
diarreha once to four times a day
pain when passing stool
lower right abdominal pain
whole abdominal pain
cramping in my stomach
moderate to severe middle to upper back and neck pain
weight loss
fatigue
constipation (at times)

Please don’t call me a liar, I posted a question before and got such negative answers I deleted it. All of these symptoms have been going on for the past couple months, so I obvisiously don’t have constipation and diarreha at the same time. Everyone thought I was lying on my last question because they thought I was saying I was having all those symptoms at the same time. Oh and I don’t have a parasite or a bacterial infection, I had tests to outrule those. I also don’t think I have colon cancer. It was a concern at first because my grandma died of colon cancer and so did three of her sisters, 2 of whom died at age 16 and early twenties. I am 18 years old and female. My blood work came back fine though, so I’m pretty sure I don’t have colon cancer.

Oh and I had a cat scan, but all they could determine was that I had diverticulosis, (not to be confused with diverticulitis, which means the holes are inflammed, mine are not) and so that could not be a reason for all my symptoms.

Last thing is are bad are colonoscopies? I have one next Tuesday and I’m quite nervous. I heard they are not painful, but I’m not sure If I beleive that. I also heard the beforehand of cleansing is really bad too. How bad? Will it hurt?

Okay that’s it. Sorry my question is kind of long. I didn’t get to ask my doctor the difference between the two diseases so I’m just wondering which one I most likely have.

A: zwimmerz,
In crohn’s disease –CD -, the location of the inflammation may occur anywhere along the digestive tract from the mouth to the anus. In ulcerative colitis – UC -, the large intestine (colon) is typically the only site that is affected. However, in some people with UC the last section of the small intestine, the ileum, may also show inflammation. UC tends to be continuous throughout the inflamed areas. In many cases, UC begins in the rectum or sigmoid colon, and spreads up through the colon as the disease progresses. In CD, the inflammation may occur in patches in one or more organs in the digestive system. For instance, a diseased section of colon may appear between two healthy sections. I presume that you know about the following details, but I shall briefly mention it in case you are not. Many people have small pouches in their colons that bulge outward through weak spots, like an inner tube that pokes through weak places in a tyre. Each pouch is called a diverticulum. Pouches (plural) are called diverticula. The condition of having diverticula is called diverticulosis. When the pouches become infected or inflamed, the condition is called diverticulitis. Diverticulosis and diverticulitis are also called diverticular disease. Constipation makes the muscles strain to move stool that is too hard. It is the main cause of increased pressure in the colon. This excess pressure might cause the weak spots in the colon to bulge out and become diverticula. Diverticulitis occurs when diverticula become infected or inflamed. Doctors are not certain what causes the infection. It may begin when stool or bacteria are caught in the diverticula. An attack of diverticulitis can develop suddenly and without warning. Colonoscopy is a procedure used to see inside the colon and rectum. Colonoscopy can detect inflamed tissue, ulcers, and abnormal growths. The procedure is also used to look for early signs of colorectal cancer and can help doctors diagnose unexplained changes in bowel habits, abdominal pain, bleeding from the anus, and weight loss. The doctor/hospital department usually provides written instructions about how to prepare for colonoscopy. The process is called a bowel prep. Generally, all solids must be emptied from the gastrointestinal tract by following a clear liquid diet for 1 to 3 days before the procedure. Patients should not drink beverages containing red or purple dye. A laxative or an enema may be required the night before colonoscopy. There is not usually any actual ‘pain’ during the procedure, it is often described as ‘uncomfortable’.

ALL ANSWERS SHOULD BE THOROUGHLY RESEARCHED, IN ANY FORUM AND ESPECIALLY IN THIS ONE. – MANY ANSWERS ARE FLAWED.

It is extremely important to obtain an accurate diagnosis before trying to find a cure. Many diseases and conditions share common symptoms.
