Hello berlington

Yes I have just been diagnosed with this after being in hospital after having a Colonoscopy. I ended up with a bowel infection.

 (I have IBS-C too) 

Regards jay

I have already had an internal bleed and my scan results states I have a lot of bowel that is affected. I'm in constant pain and it can take my all day to use the toilet, I was thinking about surgery but the thought of a colostomy bag is so scary and wanted to know if anyone else suffered from the same amount of pain.
