Hi, I’m a 22 year old male, 6ft3, 86kg.
I submitted a calprotecin test last Monday and my levels came back as 160. Here is a little history following up to this test.
On the Saturday it was my friends birthday so we had a drink, I finished 20 300ml bottles of beer. I don’t drink often only on special occasions but I get carried away when I do.
On Sunday the morning after, I was sick once and I also took 2 ibuprofen tablets after wards to help with my sore head. I was fine for the rest of the day.
On the Monday I submitted my calprotecin test which came back as 160mg/kg. I also submitted a FIT test which came back as 40ug/g. I have now been placed on a 2 week referral.
Could these chain of events affected my results in any way? How high above normal are these results?
This is my 4th post as the more I research the more questions I have, sorry for being a nuisance, it's just all very frightening and frustrating at the moment, I am staying positive I just have so many questions while I wait for my referral.
Thank you everyone!
