Definitely. Op needs a colonoscopy and a full-body MRI, stat!


No, the GI said to repeat the test in 3 weeks or have colonscopy if level stays elevated. Full body MRI isn’t needed.


That's a long time to wait to see if cancer is spreading to, or originated from, other parts of the body.

My child had E. coli and similar presentation. It never got better until we eliminated wheat, went GF.

It was as if the E. coli triggered a gluten sensitivity. It looks several week and now everything is normal again but we kept up the GF diet.

We need to repeat the calprotectin as a follow up. Sympathy to you, OP. It's very disruptive to normal life.

Then I guess your GI is busier. Might want to find another. Or maybe mine had a cancelation. They’re amazing!
