i am male, 37 and otherwise fit and
healthy...Two years ago I had a full
medical..Blood tests also...All clear
including crp.
About 18 months ago I started to feel
tired all the time, lethargic and
generally run down, then I would have the
runs...Then constipation..Then the runs
and so on....Blood sometimes
my doc put it down to irritable
bowel....And that was it .
About 3-4 months ago I started to feel
really bad...Tired etc but done nothing
and just got on with it..
About 4 weeks ago I had enough and he done
blood tests which showed elevated crp at
22......I am due to see specialist this
week, but what is concerning me is blood
in the stools...Going to toilet about 4-5
times a day...Sometimes black other times
runny with undigested food...To cap it all
in the last month I have lost 10lbs in
weight....But my doc does not seem overly
concerned and says specialist will look at
it.
Has anyone else had similar experiences.
Ta,
scotty.

I would be seeing a specialist straight
away and asking for a gastroscopy and also
a colonoscopy ! Good luck !
