CT ABDOMEN WITH GASTROGRAFFIN
Hello - had a Faecal Calprotectin result of 304 ug/g so I am having the above CT next week. I have never heard of this, and the prep looks worse than the one for a Colonoscopy! The instructions made me laugh - this is not a laxative but may cause diarrhoea - has anyone out there had one of these scans

Rituximab and Abdominal Pain
Currently 3 months into my first Rituximab treatment and without being too paranoiac I am getting some abdominal aches, back, shoulders but more persistently just below my ribs right hand side. Automatically I thought liver issues and frightened myself to death. Late last year and early this year I had

Calprotectin levels 6000mg/g
I had a colonoscopy a few months ago and was given the all clear with some microscopic inflammation seen in the biopsies. But a recent stool sample has shown my calprotectin levels are around 6000. Back in August they were 652. I lost a lot of weight fast last year and have been getting stomach cramps

Convinced it’s colon cancer
Hi everyone, I’m 24 years old and convinced I have colorectal cancer. My symptoms started around 3 months ago with excessive gas, stomach gurgling and some bloating. I’d had diarrhoea on and off for a while beforehand though. Also lots of mucus in throat and need to clear often plus occasional pain and

Hiatus Hernia and Positive Fit Test
Hello, I’ve been having reflux issues since the summer and had an endoscopy where they found a hiatus hernia. However as my reflux symptoms haven’t improved upper stomach / chest and stomach discomfort they did a FIT test which came back positive (24) for hidden blood. Waiting for a colonoscopy. My poo

Worried lump under belly button. Not visible.
Hi I have been having health problems for a few months now and have kept my doctors informed throughout but they just think I have very bad anxiety as it’s one thing after another. I’ve tried to explain they are real issues that can be seen and felt. I started having thinner stools in September. One

Terrified I have rectal/colon cancer
Hi Everyone, For the past 10 days I’ve had a lot of symptoms that have me terrified I have cancer. I’ve been crying a lot. Sorry for the lengthy message. It started with insane amounts of mucus/pus coming out of my rectum. This also kept making me feel I had to poop, but it was just mucus throughout

Acid Reflux
My trouble started just after Christmas, keep feeling sick all the time, doc thought it was acid reflux possibly caused by my hiatus hernia, Prescribed loads of PPIs which made things worse, in the end used Gaviscon mint which made it a bit better, then I got mucus with my stool, gradually got worse

PA and hiatal hernia
I was diagnosed with PA on my first antibody test 3 years ago. It was good because I was getting ruled out for everything from MS to a brain tumor. I self inject b-12. I was overdue for a colonoscopy and endoscopy was advised since I would already be prepped. She did see a hiatal hernia which I was pretty

Anyway, after the blood test, I was told I had low b12. So, I was sent for another blood test and stool sample and have now been told

Colonoscopy
Just back from docs, have had a lot of mucus, so after internal anus check and found blood have been referred for two week colonoscopy. No diarrhoea, stools always solid, wondered what is causing all the mucus. Doc also requested Faecal Calprotectin and Faecal Immunochemical Tests. I had a clear NHS
