Calprotectin over 9000 but biopsy could not confirm Chron, could be something else?

I was hospitalized twice in a month by ambulance as pain was soo severe. First time this happens to me, doctors still need to give me a diagnosis but they think I might have Chron. Could be something else although my calprotectin is over 9000? Like very bad food poisoning or anisakis, patassites?

Has your GP referred you for a colonoscopy? If not I suggest you ask for one as your calprotectin levels definitely indicate an IBD (inflammatory bowel disease).

Not what you're looking for?
