My kid has Crohn’s. They did both colonoscopy and Endoscopy when they first diagnosed him. The scar tissue at the inflammation site was too severe for the camera to go all the way through, so I guess getting blocked up by a ketchup packet is plausible.
He had the bad section removed a couple weeks ago. Doing fine.
Horrible illness.
I am glad he is doing better.
It did touch on other things, mentioning that the increase of Crohn's being correlated to a new process of industrialized bread production.
Specifically, the continuous production of bread using a special yeast developed in Sweden. Apparently, the lack of rise/proof time doesn't lend itself to letting the yeast metabolize stuff linked to Crohn's, compared with the age-old batch production method.
FWIW.
Prayers up.
I’m glad everything is going OK for your kid.
Crohn’s sucks!
