This can only come from a gastro, in my area a gp isn’t authorised to request them so you cannot just buy them the calprotectin is a stool test that has to be requested by a medical professional, maybe gps can request them now but when I was diagnosed I was already under a gastro thankfully.

Not what you're looking for?
