You would know: better than me about your particular pattern of Crohn's. But certainly an inflammatory condition often begins that way. Also, chronic bowel inflammation will often cause chronic iron loss and anemia.

Pause, look at life?: Chronic disease such as Crohns can cause fatigue, however tiredness has several interlinked causes. Most tiredness improves with regular healthy meals, daily exercise, sleep hygiene (patient.co.uk) reduction in alcohol use and healthy choices that reduce feelings of stress. Medical causes such as active crohns, anaemia, diabetes, thyroid dysfunction can be excluded at a routine review with your Dr
