Hello everybody my names Cory caceres, I'm 22yo m who has been battling the symptoms of crohns since high school... Feeling bloated, pain in lower right stomach and occasional diarrhea, under weight, ect...
I always just ignored it thinking it was just a upset stomach or something,
But it's only getting worse sever stomach pain right lower side, mucus In stool, nausea, heat flashes, frequent bowel movements, heartburn, fatigue I went to see my doc but he was out so I seen a replacement who put me on carafate, omeprazole, bentyl she did a lot of blood work, a rectal exam, and did a fecal test
I got the results back not sure what they mean
Interpretive information: calprotectin fecal
50/ ug/g or less: normal
51-120 ug/g: borderline elevated, test should be re-evaluated in 4-6weeks
121 ug/g or grater: abnormal, sugestive of inflammatory bowel disease( ibd)
Does that mean I have ibd, any help or advice would be great
I have a appointment with my doc Tomorrow just not sure what to expect...
