I was diagnosed with chron's disease two weeks ago, and in my country is something very rare and we don't have much information about it. Thanks for the videos, I'm having a hard time now that I've discovered, but it seems that maybe things may get better. Cheers from Brazil and keep up the good work.
I've had soo many MRIs at this point that I'm shocked I don't stick to the fridge! 🤦♀️ I've really been in a weird space lately. My joints are insanely swelled and my Crohn's is angry....and not having a colon makes it soooo. much. worse. Usual 8-10 bathroom visits are now about 15-20! 🥴❤
Hoping you feel better soon!!! I have been diagnosed with Crohns this year after having fistulas and seton surgery. I'm about to start azothioprine and humira and i've loved finding your videos. Sending you healing vibes 💖🙏🏼
Hi all I just wanted to give my input, I had MRI small bowel with contrast yesterday, I was super nervous cried so much due to having to drink the prep with an already inflamed stomach! my dad encouraged me to drink it I did, and it wasn’t as bad as what I thought, baring in mind I’m emetophobic and very sensitive! yes I got loose stools VERY looks stools but handling it better than what I thought, If I can do it a weakling like me, so can you all ❤
Hi lovely, I also have Crohn's disease, I was diagnosed when I was 10 years old! I understand 100% where you are coming from with the MRI's they are so so uncomfortable and I find it really difficult to hold my breathe for the length of time they ask you to, swell as that drink its VILE! I always struggle to finish it!!! you are so relatable regarding Crohn's - I do have a few videos on it myself! but hang on in there, your doing amazing and thank you for documenting!!! x
I also have Crohn’s! I didn’t mind the drink but my stomach killed me and I had many bathroom trips before the procedure! Once they put stuff in my iv it slowed my bowels and I stopped having diarrhea after the procedure! I never want one again! Feel better!
Had one 2 weeks ago been diagnosed with ibd its not pretty but im fucking delighted to have a diagnosis after 3 years of horrible stomach issues the worst part is the shitting after the movi prep and its vile 🤣 u got this 🤝💙
I have Crohn's. I was hospitalized 3 times and ended up having surgery. They took 3 plus feet of intestines and colon. I feel worse now then before. I've had 4 MRI's in the past 2 years and know what your feeling.
Thank you for sharing this video, I have just received a letter for MRI which I am quite anxious for 😢. I had endoscopy and colonoscopy last month now they sent me this letter without telling my previous tests report. X
Hi. Re Buscopan you should have been asked if there is a history of Glaucoma in your family too before your scan as it shouldn't be given to you if there is? I hope your results come back ok and you stay in good health. I'm a Crohnie of 20+ yrs now. Wishing you all the best and more than happy to share my Crohn's journey with you, if it would help you in yours? Regards Andy
I am supposed to get a GI MRI next month the last MRI it took me 4 hours to drink the contrast because I was so nauseous and i had to walk up and down the hallway to make sure it went through my intestines
I had my MRI on friday...was my first MRI ever and it really does suck 🙄 I have Crohn’s as well. Hoping your results will be fine! I’m hoping mine will be too 💖
I have to lie on my back with my hands on my side. The contrast always makes me sick. It makes me feel like I have to pee. It sucks but I had to get it over with
What do you want to know about MRI or ct scans? I think I've had just about everything scanned at least once! Abdominal area... I've lost count. Ask me and I'll try my best to answer💜
Oh that is why I got blurred vision last May after my MRI ha ha ha 😅😂 I told my husband and just like oh well... it must be the contrast and will pass by ... I hated the pain because of the contract and diarrhea that continued for a while and immediately after my first cup
I said in the hospital last week for a week, second time in a month feeling unheard and I do not think they are diagnosing me right What are the chances that I get food poisoning four times a year? Am I that unlucky? This last time it took two days before I could call 9/11, the pain was so extreme I couldn’t move and I couldn’t get off the toilet or put the trashcan down from in front of me, so this time my heart actually released some thing called troponins which is a marker for a heart attack that’s how bad the pain was Does anybody relate to that, does that sound like a flareup?
Strange they never told u a out the bluriness. I've had 3 and they've mentioned that every time. hope u get better soon. Stop eating vegan, its destroying ur gut!
Hang in there. As a fellow Crohnie I can definitely sympathize
The contrast always makes my stomach hurt and run to the toilet.
I'm due in for this on Friday, so helpful thank you Lucy

Keen for an update on the no medication situation
Oh no, I'm sorry to be hearing this. Are you still off your meds? Get well soon.
I am a fellow crohns sufferer so know how your feeling. Best of luck with your results.

Was the stuf bad that you had to drink?
I am supposed to get a GI MRI next month the last MRI it took me 4 hours to drink the contrast because I was so nauseous and i had to walk up and down the hallway to make sure it went through my intestines

Ugh, that contrast solution always makes my stomach turn. Like watery milk. 🤢

Do you know if the MRI of the small bowel shows the large intestine as well? Regards
Chronic Butterfly 🦋 how many abdominal pelvic CT scan you had ? I had already 6 and I think it's already way too much
What does the drink taste like is it really gross?

Me too
The buscopan made me feel stoned man
Your boyfriend is just like my husband ... bold and hates the camera 😂🤣😅
