In fact, in speaking with several doctors over the last couple of weeks, I have learned that there are really no tests for Crohn's specifically, but instead all of these tests are being used to rule out other diseases.
Since, in many of my tests there were indicators of Crohn's, and no proof of other diseases, my doctor believes I have what MAY BE a mild form of Crohn's and has thus began treating me as such.
Beginning treatment:
- Entocort EC - 3 capsules a day
- Colazal 750 mg - 3 capsules 3 times a day

Mate, I know exactly how you feel, I have the same situation. A colonoscopy showed inflammation but thats it, No ulcers etc. I then had a capsule - totally normal.
I have been told I MAY have a mild form or underdeveloped form of crohns. I have been started on
9mg of budesonide (entocort)
pentasa twice daily.
I share your frustration buddy!
best regards
Aaron
