Fecal calprotectin time

[Samutro]

It's been 2&1/2 weeks & results not back! Have gastro appt tomorrow. is this normal time?

[Valbaty54]

I was told the FC test takes about two weeks. Maybe the result will go straight to your gastro consultant. Or was it a GP request?

Yes it does sound normal, I work as a Medical Secretary in colorectal surgery and at our Hospital it's usually 3-4 weeks wait for those results I'm afraid

[Samutro]

GP request. He is doing colonoscopy anyway. Thank you both for your help!

Hi there! I got my results for this test in four days.

My son who is 11 years old, was diagnosed with UC at 7 years old, has his results usually within 2 days. (His Pedi GI might be rushing the results due to his age.)

Thanks! It took 6 weeks eek!
