Had a CT scan few days back at Urgent care. No evidence of bowel obstruction was found. Impression was mild colonic wall thickening in descending colon through the rectum may be mild colitis vs under distension. Should I worry about this?
Tests done are negative but still have severe back pain, nausea, sweating CT scans, x-rays, 2 biopsies done for Crohn's & colitis. I'm 37 female?
My recent CT scan says, "Bowel Structures: There is mild thickening to the sigmoid colon likely due to incomplete distention rather than colitis. There's no small bowel obstruction." Should I be concerned? Advise is greatly appreciated. Thank you?
Do small nodes seen ct scan near colon warrant ct scan follow up after colonscopy found 'mild colitis' ? This would be 5th ct scan in 6 yrs.
CT scan didn't show diverticulitis.Pain on left and right of belly button, nausea.Had Cdiff, Colitis, Diverticulitis last year. Can CT miss something?
