| Re: Gas coming from the top instead of the bottom
Hi, my daughter was having a lot of stomach pain, was regular also. She had blood work done and found an elevated sed rate. After a year and a half, we finally got a diagnosis of crohn's disease. From what I understand, crohn's presents itself slightly different in different people because it can be in different places, anywhere from the mouth to the anus. I have heard from several people that if you change your diet to a high fiber diet, and that makes you feel worse, there is a good chance for crohn's disease. My daughter was in agony when the doctor thought she had IBS and tried the high fiber diet, and then different pills for IBS. Trying a high fiber diet is something you can do on your own. It can either help, which for a lot of GI things it does, or if you feel worse, I would make that doctors appointment. Good luck!!
