Has anyone else not had treatment for a problem because they think it's just Crohn's?

I think this is my own bad habit but it's definitely also my doctor sometimes.

Two years ago I had excruciating abdominal pain. My doc jumped on it, did an endoscopy, and found a couple minor ulcers. I have a high tolerance to pain and thought this was a strange reasoning for the pain I had but it also made sense. I'd never had an ulcer and didn't know how painful they could be. A couple days later the pain was so bad I couldn't breathe. I bit the bullet and went to the ER. Turned out I had pancreatitis.

Now, two years later, I had a surgery in August and have had Crohn's symptoms and pain since. I've been nagging my doc for a while about pain and they've been receptive in running tests and finally I was able to get an MRI yesterday. I get a message from her this morning saying I have an Tubo-Ovarian abscess and need to get to the ER as soon as possible as this is emergent and potentially life threatening.

I had a fluid collection after my surgery that was resolved with a drain. They rechecked it in September and it was still resolved. I've had some pain in my abdomen and a little in my pelvis where the original collection was. I've mentioned this but they figured it was residual inflammation, which is what I thought.

I guess this is a bit of a rant but also, does this happen to anyone else? I swear I could be dying and just think "I bet this is just a Crohn's flare."

Ugh.
