"Not a good day. I only got back to work on Thursday and yesterday. Today I feel like crap insides have flared up. I only have my GPS word that I've got IBD still waiting for Gastroenterology to confirm got MRI 7th April. Calprotectin has raised and higher. Been of work so much it's getting to stage that I might be dismissed from my work unless I get a proper diagnosis and get under control. Feeling low, worried, annoyed."

  1. Hi . How you are feeling is certainly understandable. Many here know how difficult the diagnostic process can be. I want to share with you this article on the process, so you can see potential steps to get you there: https://inflammatoryboweldisease.net/diagnosis. I also want to note that, while you may not have the official diagnosis, your doctors can confirm for your work that you have real issues/symptoms that are being treated as they seek the diagnosis. Also, considering that the MRI was done on April 7th, it seems o.k. for you to press the gastroenterologist's office for results. Hoping you get some answers and relief soon and please feel free to keep us posted on how you are doing. Best, Richard (Team Member)
