My roommate has Crohn's. She was misdiagnosed several times with every possible thing you could imagine and it came to a head in college when she voluntarily checked herself into a rehab when a doctor misdiagnosed her with anorexia! She had to be rushed to the hospital one night, and had a pick line for about a month, and they figured out it was Crohn's. She takes lots of meds, and she's a pretty hardworking and cheery girl. It makes me mad to think she spent 2 years going to specialists and not being able to nail down a diagnosis, but she's doing well now.
My mom has colitis, and she's been living with it for a very very long time.
