Good afternoon,
Please can anyone share any experience of calprotectin levels and what levels of around 260 could mean? I am struggling with my doctors at the moment for any information,
Thank you for any help anyone can give,
Louise

Hello Terrified
The calprotectin blood test is able to detect inflammation in the bowel and is used by doctors as a simple way to check for a number of inflammatory bowel conditions.
I can see from another post that you made recently that you do have a lot going on at the moment and it’s understandable that you’re feeling concerned about things.
Do get back in touch with your GP surgery and ask for an appointment, even if just by telephone, with someone who can explain what has been going on with your tests and ask for some clarification. I’m sure the GP will be able to offer you some reassurance.
Best wishes,
Jenn

Hi Alice,
Sorry to hear you have been worrying. My doctors repeated my test and told me the results were notmal the second time round, They said it can be down to a number of conditions.

Hi,
Thank you. May I ask you what symptoms you had which prompted you to have a stool test? X
