To be honest, I've never been right but past year or so its been worse.
Diarrhoea is the problem. Some days I'm ok some days not. I seem to be taking much more imodium than I used to.
I rarely get stomach pain, never constipation, but its a real inconvenience to say the least.
Im the first to admit my diet is terrible, I'm well overweight (so deffo no weight loss here!) but apart from that, I dont feel unwell or tired or anything like that. I do have a very stressful job and am a very stressy person (depression/anxiety problems in the past).
Not sure if its related but I've had problems with piles a few months ago (needed hospital treatment). Apart from when I get that - no problems with blood generally.
But, I went back to GP recently - my wife made me. Reluctantly they did blood tests (dont think it was full) inc inflamatory thingy. Got home today (3 days after tests) to find a letter asking me to go back for repeat blood tests in 3-4 weeks - bone profile and full blood count.
My wife (whos a nurse) is thinking colitis or crohns or something. And I think the worst?
But like I said I've not really got other symptoms.....
Is it possible my bloods have shown up inflamatory markers?
Also, why blood tests in 3-4week why not now?
