Hi,
I've had flexi sig and upper endoscopy - gastritis and bleeding in stomach and ulceration??cobblestone mucosa?? in left side colon.
2 x fecal calprotectin +308.
Colonoscopy - NAD
Small bowel MRI - waiting for results.
My GI has discounted the sigi and endoscopy as nothing, all biopsies were ok so really only the calprotectin have come back negative (or positive dependant on how you look at it!).
Hopefully the MRI will show something as I'm getting so down about everything.
I'm rarely out of the house mostly through pain or vomiting but also through D and have had to change working hours to nights and drop down to part time hours.
I just hope my GI looks at the MRI results asap but I'm scared that they won't find anything because then what?? At least if theres something there I could get meds to help.
Had a thought last night that maybe the calprotectin was high because of the gastritis?? I think I'm trying to make myself believe they won't find anything so I don't feel so bad if thats the result. I still have diarrhea but thats after days of constipation so I still believe I may have some narrowing but I
suppose the MRI would show up if there is? Do people get diagnosed off an MRI?
Hope we all get answers soon
