For several years now I have been suffering from abdominal pain on my right side as well as acid reflux, nauseau, vomitting, constipation and diarhea. Since 2001 I have had several surgeries to try and fix the problem. They include: having my gall bladder removed, two surgeries for endometriosis, a total hysterectomy and my appendix removed. The doctors that I see have done several tests including a pill cam, several ct's, xrays and blood work. All my ct's come back showing a fat band wrapped around my intestines which the doc said was indicative of Crohn's but all my other tests have come back showing no Crohn's. The pain is getting worse and I think I have been on at least twenty different kinds of medication to try and get this under control. I have tried Pentasa, Entocort, Prednisone, Nortriptyline and Imuran just to name a few. Also recently I have only been able to eat two meals a day because if I try to eat any more than that I vomit for the next two days.
My question is if this isn't Crohn's disease then could it be the fat band that is wrapped around my intestines be causing this? If so, should it be removed? Any advice that you can give would be extremely appreciated.
