Acid Reflux or Crohn's flare?

Posted , 4 users are following.

I was treated for acid reflux when trying to find dignosis for Crohn's. 

I have been on omeprazole for over two years but my reflux in the last month has got worse and even uping my dosage does not help. 

Could it be that this is not reflux but inflammation due to Crohn's? 

It has never been this severe before!!

Thank you xx
