New fecal calprotectin home test coming soon

Just saw this on another group. It looks amazing!

It allows you to check your fecal calprotectin level at home with results in minutes to monitor the disease.

That could be really bad
For my pocket book

I can just imagine all of us parents in line at two in the morning camping out waiting for them to open the doors for us to run in and buy this!

Hubby: Um honey why is the pantry, the bathroom closets and the spare bedroom filled with stool tests?

Wifey: Duh...I've already filled the garage, they have to go somewhere!

 

[xeridea]

Well that's nifty!

 

[crohnsinct]

Omgosh! Clash! Literally lmao:rof::rof:

 

[nogutsnoglory]

That's fantastic! Are they undergoing FDA trials?

No worries gang. Not likely this test will make it into a lot of our hands. Your ibd center first has to sign up for it. You then get it through them. Every time you run the test it transmits results to the doc.

Yeah. I am thinking not many ped gi's are lining up to put this in parents' hands

And YES I checked the website out already:shifty-t:

I knew you would do the checking
Considering ours has to send it out and wait over a week as well for actual test results
Maybe a possibility of something they would have in the clinic to use so they would have control kwim
But instant results -woohoo

OMG,meow great would that be (if they make it available to us)!!!! I'm having to wait 10 days for the current results!!
