I am losing weight fast. About a pound or so a week. I am getting skinnier, and skinnier,even though I have been eating a good bit... I have heard about treatments, to help people with crohn's disease, and other diseases like that, to help them gain weight. Which sort of doctor should I go to, about this weight loss problem? Need to know before I get too much lighter! Light as a feather as it is.

Since the weight loss is a result of the crohn's, you should see a gastroenterologist (preferable a pediatric, due to your age) and possibly a dietician. Dieticians know the ideal number of calories and nutrients your body needs and the best way to get them.

Nodnod, Just need to find a decent doctor down here. Pretty hard to find one that can help with anything. Have tried a few gastologists, and none have done anything that have helped, I guess there are always more of them around.
