Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is different to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The term inflammatory bowel disease is usually used to describe two conditions known as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, both of which are long-term conditions that involve inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract.

The symptoms of IBD may include one or more of;

• swelling, pain or cramps in the tummy
• recurring or bloody diarrhoea
• weight loss
• extreme tiredness

The CALPROTECTIN ALERT self-test has an overall agreement with laboratory tests of more than 95%.

If you have a positive result, speak with your doctor who will discuss your symptoms and decide whether further investigations are necessary.
