Hi asking advice ive always suffered with IBS had a colonoscopy in 2003 and it cane back fine. I had a poo test 2 months ago which came back high at 138 so I had to repeat it and that ones come back double at 308 so they say it’s could be more IBD than IBS which is colitis/chrons disease basically life changing stuff. They thought it was my gall bladder so they took it out but the pains kept coming on and off. Iv got an urgent referral to gastro for a colonoscopy so we can see what we are dealing with. They asked for urgent bloods that came back yesterday Good news all bloods came back and they are fine even the inflammation one. Only one came back slightly abnormal was liver count everything was okay with liver apart from one which was slightly high. Says just need to repeat test. No blood in stools fit test negative. No doctor to talk to until tomorrow. Do you think it could be IBS thats just caused a high count. any advice would be appreciated im beside myself. thanks Ange
