My partner was admitted to hosptal back in oct with sever gastro which lasted 18 days, after extensive tests they found his bowel was inflamed, and was told that his body was rejecting his bowel, much like a transplant patient might experiene, he was put on a course of steriods, which eased the problem but he has never really felt completley better, over the xmas break he had to come off the steriods, but only after a week of doing so got ill again, he was taken back to hospital by ambo and after a ct scan was done much to the docs surprise his bowel was normal, he has lost 20 kilos unable to use his bowel for the past 5 days, has extreme stomach pain, high temp, fever, sweating, lack of appetite , white fingers and extreme nausea , they did perform blood tests and found that his white blood cell count is through the roof? but cant give us any answers yet?
