@becsbuddy It took 4months before I was diagnosed with EBI. The first 3 months I didn’t eat and I ended up in the hospital due to my potassium level was a 2.7 and then when they took a huge amount of blood and tests they couldn’t figure out why I had non stop diarrhea. I then had a colonoscopy but not before my potassium had dropped to 2.3 and they gave me liquid potassium to bring it up enough to sedate me. Then they told me I had colitis and inflammation. When the tests came back I didn’t have colitis. That’s when I had to call every few days to get to see her. I am on Creon but she didn’t explain anything just put the prescription in the portal. I still have diarrhea but it has slowed down.
