I too suffer with my worst pains an night. I have had my colonoscopy and upper endoscopy and the Crohns is fine, but I am still in agony. I am currently sitting at work contemplating whether I can carry on or whether to go home, and all that they can tell me at the moment is that as well as the Crohns I have IBS too!! But pains at night, usually just as I have gone to bed are definately the worst. I was up doubled up in pain last night until I finally fell asleep, and no amount of painkillers seems to touch it.

Hey everyone. I have a question. My son Adam (12) has been hurting real bad in his stomach again. This pain is always worse at night. He's not having a flare up, thank God, but the pain is extremely intense. My wife even called his ped. GI Doc last night (2:00 am), just to see if there's anything else to do.
He's already scheduled for another colonoscopy, and the upper GI soon. They are also going to be doing more blood work this week. He takes his Asacol twice a day, and Bentyl at night. My question is, does anyone here experience real bad pain just at night?
