Frequent GI Bleeds Ruining My Life - What Are My Next Steps?

Hi everyone I have recently been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis at 16. I was having symptoms (bloody diarrhea, fatigue, and pain, waking up 10+ times a night to go to the bathroom, going 10+ times during the day and urgency) for over a month but didn’t think much of it and though that it would eventually go away ( I have other medical issues so I though that maybe it was just that).I eventually told my mom after being embarrassed and scared. We decided to go to the emergency room after not being able to get an appointment with a GI doctor for over a month. I ended up being admitted and was extremely anemic and inflamed. All of my levels were very low resulting in me having to get two blood transfusions and two iron transfusions. I eventually got a colonoscopy and endoscopy while in the hospital which was able to officially diagnose me. I started steroids right after my procedure but they didn’t seem to help much so I got my first dose of remicade. There wasn’t a huge change after the first dose causing me to get a second dose. I ended up staying in the the hospital for 12 days before finally being able to go home. I just got home 4 days ago and I am still struggling with the same symptoms. And on top of this I have missed the last couple weeks of school and I had to take some of my finals in the hospital. I also took my last two test today that I had to go in for. I still feel very fatigue and tired constantly. I have a couple doctors appointment coming up and I also have my third remicade infusion this Friday. I definitely am noticing a difference with the remicade but I definitely want it to work better because I am still having my draining symptoms. I am definitely struggling both mentally and physically during this time but I am hopeful that things will get better. Just wanted to open up to someone because not a lot of people my age talk about this and no one in my family has IBD or colitis. :)

How did they diagnose your Crohn’s disease? I feel like the way they did mine was terribly stupid when there were safer ways out there.

Anyone else struggle with inconclusive results? Crohn's/Ulcerative Colitis/IBS??? I first had my first bloody BM in University, and my biopsy from the colonoscopy came back as a match with UC. My doctor said he wasn't completely convinced (I am very lucky to have a very mild case of whatever I have). He put me on medication (Sulfasalazine). Several years later, all tests are always going back and forth between UC and Crohn's. I've had colonoscopies with perfect results, fecal tests with slightly elevated results, fecal tests with perfectly normal results. Constant is diarrhea, but haven't had blood in a while. My latest doctor said she thinks I am more likely to have Crohn's. I commonly struggle with imposter syndrome and am just looking to see if there are any others who have had a similar experience to mine. Any advice? Thanks!
