Hi -
I have some questions for my undiagnosed friends ...
Does your GI always take biopsies when doing endoscopy and colonoscopy? (even if things look fine?) (My MIL just had hers, after years of untreated D, and he did not take any biopsies because 'everything looked fine'. I was so disappointed.)
Does anyone undiagnosed have some inflammation on their biopsy pathology reports? (Danny's reports always show some mild 'non-specific' inflammation, sometimes active, sometimes chronic - in multiple areas. His last report a few weeks ago show chronic inflammation in his stomach and duodenum, and active inflammation in his tranverse colon. All non-specific.)
I read this article today ... and thought it was interesting.
