Confused and fed up
About 18 months ago I had the worst griping pains ever with constant trips to the toilet with bruising pains and fatigue the next day. Once I felt better, it kept happening every couple of months. In between these episodes I had urgent bowel movements.
I decided to visit my gp who requested stool test and blood stool test. It came back with 317 calprotectin and 59 CRP.
I was referred for a colonoscopy which was clear, apart from distal proctitis. My symptoms seem to be more like Crohn's and I am still suffering with lots of symptoms and I feel something has been missed.
Has anyone been told they have proctitis? What are your symptoms?
