Hello! Mr. XXXXX.

Thanks for putting your query in XXXXXXX

Painful diarrhea has only few differentials:
1. Crohn's disease
2. Chronic pancreatitis
3. Tuberculosis of abdomen

Let the biopsy report be out, they are waiting from the report attached here. It determines the exact reason. If they have and it is inconclusive then the next step you require is a small bowel enteroscopy and biopsy of any suspected area there.

Also get ultrasound abdomen or directly contrast enhanced CT abdomen which will aid in diagnosis the actual problem.

I hope I have answered your query and this will help you. Remain in touch and get-well soon.

Hello! Mr.XXXXX. Sorry for delay in response

l have gone through the reports.

Small bowel biopsy is suggestive of potential celiac disease or nonspecific intraepithelial lymphocytosis.

To further remove the confusion I will advise you to get a blood test known as anti tissue transglutaminase antibody levels. In celiac disease level of this antibody is increased for which you can discuss your treating Doctor.

One thing is little bit confusing. Report number scan 0007 which a colonoscopy report mention that whole of the colon showed ulcerations, erythema and congestion. And Histopathology report (scan 0008) of the tissue taken from there is completely normal. Please discuss your treating Doctor regarding this also.

Please give feedback. Getwell soon.
