High calprotectin plus pain

Hi, so I've had 2 stool tests that both came back over 900 three months apart. I have pain in my right side and my stool has mucus and blood in it. I had a colonoscopy which came back OK but still having same symptoms if not worse.  I'm waiting for my 3rd sample to come back.  

I'm a bit concerned about my symptoms and wondered if anyone has similar issues? I'm 37

  • Hello Wonderwoman85 and welcome to Cancer Chat, 

    I am sorry to hear you had two stool tests that came back at over 900 three months apart and that you've had all these other symptoms including pain in your right side and mucus and blood in your stool. It's reassuring though that your colonoscopy didn't flag anything concerning but I can understand why you would want to know why you are having these symptoms especially if you feel they are getting worse. I hope you won't have to wait too long for your third sample to come back and that you get some clarity on all this soon. If you feel you are not getting any definite answers, perhaps you could seek a second opinion

    I hope that you will hear from other forum members who have had similar issues and that they will be along shortly to share their experience with you. 

    Everything crossed for you that you get some answers very soon!

    Best wishes,
