Are you bleeding a great deal? That could have an effect I should think.

Daft question but why do you think you have crones disease, I have UC and microscopic colitis which could be the start of crones that's why I ask.
Diagnosed 4 years ago

I have a close friend that had UC/Crohn (the doctors could not tell for sure), but I can tell you that her symptoms were severe. Going like 15 times a day in the bathroom, heavy bleeding, etc.

She had several surgeries, removed most of the colon, but since more than 1 year is doing fine

I have Crohn's and my experience of it when it started was pretty rough.
A month of high fevers, lost 8 kg, Constant pain in my lower back, couldn't poop (usually it's the opposite with Crohn's) and coulnd't eat. It kept getting put down to the flu/gastro bug.

Admitted myself to hospital and I had a severe case with abscesses through my small intestine, inflammation through the roof and severe narrowing of part of my intestine.

It doesn;t sound like you have Crohn's, maybe Irritable Bowel? But of you get your doc to do a CRP test that will show if you have inflammation.
