My son (7 years old) has been struggling with abdominal pain for over 3 months. He was put on omeprazole with suspected heartburn. He then had an ultrasound which showed mesteric adinitis and fecal calprotectin of 400mg+ showing inflammation.
He was put on triple therapy for h pylori but he still has elevated temperatures every day and the pain continues.
Dr is advising an endoscopy and a colonscopy but asking us to repeat the stool test once he finishes the antibiotics.
How likely is this to be malignant?
