hi yes i get clear blood resuluts but had calprotectin in stool and also had a small patch of imflammation in small bowel. im awating a pill cam at the moment but gastro are pretty certain i have Ibd. what symptoms do you have?
Hello James,
Go to A&E and ask them to do an x-ray of your abdomen - your stomach area and bowel area. Especially if you have had any pains or anything. From the x-ray they will be able to see if there is any inflammation.
All of my blood tests came back clear every time. Finally they decided to do an x-ray and I was admitted to hospital immediately.
Hopefully this helps. All the best.
its a big list
pins needles hand
vertgio or brain fog
chest pain
throat closing up
all of above probably acid reflux
muscle pain in oarticular neck
bloated stomoch
constant gurgerling
had watery stools for weeks and some blood but not recent
somtimes bad pain in stomoch or intestines comes and goes
fatigue all the time
im not sure a and e would do an x ray if i just rolled up right ?
doctors refural takes three or so weeks for x ray
what did you have?
Hello
Okay maybe it works different for you. I am in Northern Ireland so it could be different.
I went to A&E because I was in pain and they did blood tests and stool samples but nothing was showing up. so I just asked if there were any other tests they could do and they decided to do an x-ray. it only took 2minutes.

maybe if i went with pain i might be seen
like severe pain
so after your x ray what happened then ? what did you - do you have
Yeah because every time I went they kept turning me away. eventually I was vomiting and was so weak. I told them I’m in so much pain I need help. once they go the x-ray results the said we have to keep you in hospital something is wrong inflammation has shown up on x-ray. then I had a cat scan and a colonoscopy and a few days later I was diagnosed with Crohns Disease. I was put on a course of steroids and some other medication to get me back to a healthier state and now I’m awaiting long term medication.
