New Fecal Calprotectin Study - Interesting

Ya know, it seems so simple. This would go far in reducing costs but also reduces the nasty wait to diagnosis. I forget the average but for our kids it was 7, and 5 months from when we started pursuing a diagnosis (not just from symptom onset).
Hopefully this can push a recommendation to let GPs access fcal.
 
If there is a tech savvy forum person who wants to compile fecal calprotectin studies into a sticky at the top of the page...that might be great.
