Oh! I've had 2 MRIs now for my endo. The last one was to plan my surgery too but there was no enema. I know there is a procedure where a liquid/gel is used inside to help with visibility, it may be that? I'm not sure what it's called but its definitely been talked about on here. If you have a search you may find it.
Encase anyone else experiences the same. It turned out to be saline that was inserted into my bowel via a catheter. It was uncomfortable but only mildly and the main issues was ‘holding it in’ rather than pain/discomfort.
Not what you're looking for?
