Okay, my uncle has this disease, called chromes disease. And I was wondering what age you can get . And if you have to get it from hereditary-ly.
I'm only 15, and I'm really worried, because I have really bad stomach problems, and I've lost 40 pounds in about 5 months. The doctors don't know what's wrong with me, and they've done all these test... now, I have't to go in for an indoscopy in about half a weak.

Chrohn's disease is heriditery and is not predujice to age,color or sex. There is a site you can read a little about it. MD Web (http://www.md.com).
Luck with all things.

It is actually called Crohn's Disease, and does tend to run in families.


The most common symptoms of Crohn's disease are abdominal pain, often in the lower right area, and diarrhea. Rectal bleeding, weight loss, arthritis, skin problems, and fever may also occur. Bleeding may be serious and persistent, leading to anemia. Children with Crohn's disease may suffer delayed development and stunted growth. The range and severity of symptoms varies.

Thank you, that pretty much summed it up! I'll be sure to go to that sight:p
Do you know anything about endosconies?(I can't spell that... sry)

I think you mean an endoscopy.

That is when they take a camera and insert it and look at your intestines to see what condition they are in. This would be one way to diagnose or rule out Crohn's Disease.
