Hi,
I've had IBS for many years. Have a day where I can't go out, tummy sore the next day but then could go weeks/months without it.
Had a calprotectin level of 800 2 years ago, colonoscopy didn't show anything.
since beginning of April I've had a flare up that lasted 4 weeks. Went to GP, had blood tests/stool test. Blood test showed inflammation markers of 180. Went to ED a few days later and they had come down to 80 (still high apparently).
Had a phone call from doctors today. Needed to see me urgently. My calprotectin levels were just below 5000 (should be below 50) & my FIT test came back at 200+ (should be 0-9)
Being referred on urgent referral for another colonoscopy
Anyone had similar?
