Dear M. Wells, My name is Vicky and I have had Crohn's Disease for years. However, when I was diagnosed, I was told that there was a possiblity that I had Behcets Disease. Which is about the same as Crohn's, but with some other awful side-affects. Do you get mouth ulcers? I do almost monthly. Deep vein thrombosis is also one of the symptoms. I right now have a lump in my left leg. It is about the size of the eraser part of a pencil and has been there for almost 9 months. I do get some very severe pain in my leg, but not very often. I have had it with doctors and frankly cannot afford any more testing. So I have put this on hold. Can you tell me more about the thrombosis in your arm? I would really appreciate having someone else to talk to about this. My husband and children try to be supportive, but just don't understand how hard it can be. Thanks! vrishel@sonic.net
