Hi There

I started my symptoms in Jan this yr but may have had them on/off at intervals throughout the yrs ,but i 1st noticed really bad constipation dedpite increase of fluids and fybogel then bleeding then fever then this riduculous urge with discomfort radiating down my legs

Anyway went to er waited for 8 hours had my blood work done which i had only done the day before by my md and brought results to er with me and did not earbor drink as was advised by nurse on arrival.

I then politely asked a passing nurse would it be ok to take a sip of water and she responded ,cant you read ,the water tankbis there

Sad to say i panicked ,i burst into tears as she handed me a bill for 600 and i was told that i was constipated ,i got so distressed i was like a child on a rant ,i was so embarressed and frightened.

Was taken into a private room then told i was ill and had too stay CONFUSED !! Treated with ivs flagyl overnight .

The next day discharged with massive doses of laxatives which made my bleeding worse and accident rate, returned to consultant who greeted me with ,"well you didnt die " had colonoscopy and no follow up

Symptoms worsened now i cant eat at all bleed with every bowel mtion .pain high up in abdo both sides and lower back .need to lie down 24/7 sweat ++ and sore eyes and sometimes headache and leg pain ,feel like im dying slowly, have been pres pentasa 1 gm bd past month by a stand in dr as my lovely original dr was on hols ,and past 6 days 40mg prednisolone ..

IM BETTER IF I DONT EAT !!!

HELP contacted my stand in dr today who has me booked in for a limited scope in the am but must see the original dr ,am so nervous about that as he doesnt listen or take me serious ,"probably thinks im mad after my ER rant ,any suggestions or tips or help would be greatly appreciated

Xx
