In crohn's disease patient suffer from anemia( decrease hemoglobin).Crohn's disease is usually associated with high wbc count.No need to worry because it is treatable disease.Upper GI , colonoscopy alone is not confirmatory. Biopsy is also help to confirm the diagnosis.Follow up your doctor.
Thanx for query
