Don't know if a capsule endoscopy might help, but it diagnosed my husband's Crohns when colonoscopy and endoscopy did not.

Hi Karen. I have to repeat my capsule endoscopy next week bc my doctor’s staff didn’t tell me to stop taking carafate before the test. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Anyway, do you mind if I ask what symptoms your husband had prior to the test? I’m fairly certain I have Crohns but the doctor kept saying that it’s IBS. But now with my last colonoscopy she noticed two tiny ulcers at the end of my small intestine. Does your husband have mild Crohns? And is any medication helping? Thank you!
