Advice please

Sorry to bother all with non-lung incident but can anyone please throw any light on this? Awoke early today with flushing to face and need to get to bathroom urgently. Fainted twice to floor on the way. Had virtual colonoscopy (sorry!) Monday am this week, and wonder if this is related to that? Inclined to think so, but would anyone know? Many thanks for any pointers here.

Hi BronchyBronwen, how awful for you, fainting twice! I would call 111 now and ask for advice. Hope you feel better very soon and the cause is quickly sorted.

I had a horrible bug last week, I have an ileostomy so not so much of the tummy but really weak, could barely stand. Might be that. Sympathises xx
