Health Anxiety (Possible Crohn's)

2017-05-30 13:54:07
I had a private colonoscopy 4 years ago which showed up aphthous ulcers in my terminal ileum. I had (ashamedly) exaggerated my symptoms to ensure the test was performed. Based on my (made up) symptoms and the ulcers i was diagnosed with probable segmental Crohns. However, the biopsies were negand blood work was normal. Is Crohn's still likely?
