Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 Does anyone know a support group for children with Irritable Bowel Disease? It was one of things my Pediatrician thought Mathieu might have back in October of last year. Unofortuantely, at that time the GI doc at Children's belw us off. After reading up on it, he could have Crohn's or some autoimmune disorder. The reason I think this is if you recall he just had a funky spell about 7days ago of high fever, sweating wihtout a fever, lethargy, and of course diarrhea. He was in extreme abdominal discomfort. His WBC was very high, and he has in the past had his stools tested for WBC and RBC in it. It came back positive with WBC's, Negative for RBC's. I read last night stool may or may not have RBC's until moderate to severe damage has already been done. There are several other similiarities I included in the email.He has had at least three of these " spells " since birth. I wanted to get my ducks ina row before we see the GI specialist in a few weeks. Any info is appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
