Colonoscopy

Hello, I’ve been having various bowel issues for the past few months, ie. constipation, bloating, slight pain in lower back, bit of diarrhoea and my Dr would like me to go for a colonoscopy.

As there’s no bleeding, I assumed it could be something else. Am I wrong to think this?

Any advice welcome about a colonoscopy, thanks

Have you considered Endometriosis? That can cause bowel issues and one of the reasons it takes so long to diagnose.

Not what you're looking for?
