Good evening,
I've been bouncing back and forth across medical forums for months in my search of diagnosis, I feel extremely blessed doctors can confirm it wasn't the worst case scenarios but the stubborn side of me can't let go of the fact our medical community can't place a name with symptoms so overbearing and obvious its dangerous to someone's health....
Anyways, my main question: Could a diagnosis of an eosinophillic disorder be a similar excuse from doctors like saying someone has IBS when it could be a mild case of crohns or several extreme food intolerances???
or maybe NCGI? recently books like "wheat belly" have pointed out wheat and gluten have been causing all kinds of new medical disorders with its consumption just within the past few years.
If you observe my previous posts my only alerts have been 150 fecal calprotectin when I felt at my worst, and mild elevated numbers of eosinophils in my acsending colon (so mild it was only found through biopsy, visually I had clean scopes/ barium-iv CT scan showed no abnormalities). Symtoms, however, although significantly improved, often remain and it has been very difficult for me to indentify just based on eating certain kinds of foods.
I find it very interesting to have such continuing amount of symptoms from what they say is a minimal amount of abnormal inflammation...
