I had a CT scan a couple of weeks ago. The gi didn't seem to be too concerned with the results. However, I'm still feeling very fatigued with alternating constipation and diarrhea. A colonoscopy discovered an ulcer in the ileum, and my mom has crohn's in the ileum. She had two feet removed several years ago. Anyway, I've got a copy of the radiologist report. Does anyone know what the statements below mean? Thx!
"There is secondary diffuse wall thickening of the proximal loops of the small bowel felt to be related to poorly distended state. No worrisome areas of wall thickening are seen. There is a density seen within the distal small bower loop on the images #100 thought to be ingested contents."
Why would the thickening not be worrisome? I'm also going for a second opinion next week.
Thx!
