Hi Collen, I've had a bowel obstruction emergency surgey( I had bowel obstruction symptoms for the first three months but I thought it was just pregnancy so I didn't check until it's gotten late and had to have a surgery) and had a ostomy on June 2019 (I was 8 months pregnant, my baby boy died 11 hours after he was born 😢). After they've taken the biopsy, it said possibility of Crohn's disease. However, I didn't believe it for I've had no symptoms. Now, it's almost a year after my bowel resection. Everything was perfect. Recently, I've started noticing some mucus in my stool and I somtimes feel pain in the resection area. I'm so worried I don't want it to be Crohn's. I think I'll do a colonoscopy and take a biopsy to check. What do you think???

@oumzaid, I'm only seeing your message today. Sorry for the delayed response. You've been through a lot. I can't imagine discovering bowel obstruction during pregnancy and coping with the loss of your newborn son too. I can imagine that you're now worried about a diagnosis, possibly of Crohn's or other digestive issue. I completely agree that your symptoms should be investigated. Have you had a colonoscopy in the meantime?
