Stool results - lots of HIGH markers

[Zudukk]

Hi all,

I had a stool sample tested in 2023 for signs of contribution to hyperthyroidism (Graves Disease).

Looking back, I thought it would be remiss of me not to share the results with the community (I thiught IBS might be a helpful start), as I cannot really interpret the results, nor understand what I should be doing more or less of.

While my thyroid markers all came back into range, I do feel geneealngit sensitivity - bloating, gas.

Given I already had the test (which I paid a lot for), I wonder if there are any people more clued up than me who recognises anything and can turn into helpful advice?

Many thanks

Z

Best to ask your GP. I'm not sure that people will be comfortable clicking on personal links.

Though you may find this helpful:

Reference ranges

Initial calprotectin >100ug/g: Please repeat within 2 weeks.

Repeat calprotectin <100ug/g: Likely IBS.

Repeat calprotectin >250ug/g: IBD likely; urgent referral.

By the way mine was 327, I was urgently referred and still came back with an IBS diagnosis after colonoscopy, so a referral doesn't mean that you definitely have something else. In fact, statistically IBS is more likely, though best to check.
