Virtual colonoaspy

hi all,

Just wanted to ask if it normal to have or suffer a noisy bowel after a virtual colonoscopy? Can here all the noise in my stomach and feel it too! My bowel has emptied as I have constant diarrhoea since last Tuesday, due to an infection in my bowel due to diverticulier disease.

Thanks everyone appreciate any advice.

As Anep said they pump some air into the bowel. This can take a few days to disperse
