The symptoms most often appear as a "stomach flu"

Cramping, pain, diarrhea and nausea soon after eating. This can go on for weeks and months then just simply disappear. Most Crohn's sufferers never get diagnosed right away because of this. Weight loss and dehydration often follow because eating is triggering the symptoms. Once the patient is finally diagnosed, there are medicines that will control the symptoms but there is no cure.
