Thank you! I am traveling from St Louis MO. I actually work for a highly ranked academic facility which is why this is so frustrating for me that they can "figure out" what's going on. I was diagnosed with MP last summer via CT but the gi doc I went to said no I dont have the body type for it and looked at the ct and said no he didnt see it. I'm beyond frustrated and really need answers as this is affecting my life. Again thank you and I appreciate any insight!

@jarnold246 Wishing you well and hope that you find answers! Will you post again?

Morning @jarnold246-welcome to our group. I’m unsure what “body type” he is referring to and how that can change what was on a CT-? I’ve been diagnosed for many years now and have had a few remissions. But can relapse at anytime. Are you on medication(s)-I May have missed your previous discussions. Are you on a special diet? What symptoms do you usually have? I have found on a day-to-day basis that if I watch my diet, get extra rest and keep stress low, then I am able to enjoy life without extreme medications I need in a flare up. I hope you get help❤️

I'm sorry, but I have never heard that you should be a certain body type for this disease! What? I have heard that it is more typical for men in their 60's, but since I am a female who was diagnosed at 49, I guess there are many theories out there as to who can have MP.
