So I'm seeing my new consultant tomorrow as my professor retired just before Christmas . I was in a&e last week due to feacel discharge. I'm worried as they said I could have a hole in my colon, Dx crohns 2012. I'm worried as I feel as I have gone right back to the beginning, as I have got to start a fresh with new consultant. I just hope I can get the right treatment now, as I feel I have had no one to turn to.

He had arranged a Mri scan in the next few weeks, also he is not sure about my right side upper pain? My crohns is not active at the min as the azathioprine is working. Also he thinks I should see a gynaecologist as well. Not sure if new consultant yet as this was my first visit. He also said my crp was raised. I have got to go back in 3 months.

The new consultant said your Crohn's isn't active or that's what you're feeling?
Hi there. My CRP is high during flares. It registers inflammation in the body. Everyone is different, but in my case my CRP shows as a marker for a flare. My doctor does blood tests when I'm "well" and compares them to when I'm ill. That's how we figured that out.
