Hi there gemmap,

I have extensive endo on the bowel too and have never had any bleeding. If I were you, I would insist on a colonoscopy just to be safe. It's too easy to fob us off and when the endo is that bad you need to be sure. I have had a colonoscopy in preparation for my 6th surgery!! Best wishes with it all. x
