Hey! First post ever so hope I'm doing this right...
I have been told I'm going to be given an MRI small bowel scan to see if they can solidify a diagnosis of Crohns but I'm worried that, if I'm not flaring, nothing will show? Is that the case? Or does inflammation hang around etc? Are there markers there when you're in a no symptom state?
I'm sure this sounds really stupid but it's been playing on my mind as I'm flaring atm and almost wish I could get the test done right now?
I've been trying to get the Doctors to listen to me for over a year and they still won't so it's important that they can check their little box?
