Colitis Symptoms Can Be Confusing

November 2nd, 2008 by kingsx

Colitis can be a difficult disease to diagnose, as colitis symptoms can be confused with the symptoms of the other types of gastrointestinal diseases. Most of the colitis symptoms (such as diarrhea, bloody stool with mucus, inflammation in your colon, redness in the eyes, inflammation in your joints, weakness, lethargy and weight loss) are also common in other diseases such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Crohn’s disease and other similar gastrointestinal diseases. These signs can also be the early warning signs of colon cancer, so it is imperative for you to visit your doctor for proper diagnosis, as soon as you experience these symptoms.
