let me start by saying... HELLO!
I really have no idea if I fit in here, but I have been doing a lot of research and gathering a lot of hope and support vicariously from the posts on this site. You all seem like helpful, wonderful people.
Here's what's going on:
I'm a 22 year old female...
Crippling abdominal pain, bloody bm's, lots of them, low grade fever, vomiting, 2 months now.
Normal Colonoscopy, normal endoscopy,
several ulcers and areas of pronounced inflammation found in the small intestine during MR Enterography
and a fecal calprotectin level of 892
Doc agrees it is some kind of IBD but is not willing to say Crohn's yet, so no treatment planned at this time.
Any thoughts?
Should I get a different doc?
Nice to finally meet ya'll in type, and I hope I can contribute to this great community in some way soon.
THANKS!
