Colonography
My colorectal nurse said I could consider a colonography this year mainly for peace of mind, as I get very anxious. My last colonoscopy was clear about 5 1/2 years ago and I’ve been told that any polyps etc are unlikely. But the decision to have the colonography is ‘up to me.’ Im having it in two weeks

Adhesions and small bowel obstructions
I have just had a Laparotomy to remove extensive scar tissue/ adhesions , it took my surgeon 4 hours to get through the adhesions and then 2 weeks later I ended up back in hospital with a small
bowel
obstruction
. Does anybody else suffer with this problem ??? If so it would be great to chat

trial stopped working
In the meantime I was admitted to hospital with a
bowel
obstruction
that cleared after 4 days but scan showed I have a tumour there so it might happen again.

Diverticulitis, hemerrhoids (?), fissure (?), bleeding
Hello. After a pretty unusual bout of diverticulitis diagnosed by a CT scan, I saw my GI doc and he wants to do another colonoscopy. This is my 4th bout in 6 years - not very bothered by it - but the last one, well, I could not get the stool out, and then started pooping orangy slime. After that I went

blood in stool...mucus, clots?
Any idea what's going on here? I have an appointment, but obviously having anxiety, and need some feedback. This isn't the first time. Last time I thought maybe it was the strawberries I ate! I have a fissure and lots of pain sitting afterwards. Is this something else though?

Bowel cleanse - parasite?
Hi! So I have a colonoscopy tomorrow. I’ve had blood in my stools since March. Initially thought it was piles but after Anusol and then steroid suppositories it didn’t stop. I also have other symptoms. Pain in lower left abdomen. Well more of an ache than a pain. I’m fit. I still run and even if I get

Partial Small Bowel Obstruction
Can anyone let me know their experience of having a partial obstruction due to Crohn's disease. I have a narrowing in the middle of my small bowel, and I felt rough a few weeks ago but managed to clear it myself with going on a liquid diet and blended soups, but I think I'm starting with this issue again

I found this website and thought maybe i should post for input on what this looks like. Im trying not to stress out about it, but thats kinda

rectal bleeding
hello everyone! I am a 28 year old woman who recently started having some rectal bleeding. It is not in my stool (as my stool is completely normal colored, not black or tarry and normal shape) first day it started when I wiped. Next day there was nothing, the following day there was blood in the toilet

mannitol
mannitol which is in Teva brand of thyroxine and does not agree with everyone. I have found out is obtained by the hydrogenation of sugars from wheat/corn starch no wonder I have problems, being gluten free. Also found it in other medications.

Hi Everyone, I'm new to this but so glad I found it. Thought I'd introduce myself....no point in holding back!
It had narrowed to the point that I was at risk of
Bowel
Obstruction
so I was told, 'When you can't stand the pain any longer come back & they would have to fit a Colostomy Bag'.

Squamous Cell carcinoma of the Rectum
Hello all, I was just diagnosed with squamous cell rectal cancer. Tunor is in lower part of the Rectum and has spread from close to the anus to the second fold in the Rectum. I'll find out what stage next week when I meet my surgeon but I believe it will be stage 3 or 4. 3 inguinal lump nodes one one

A few weeks ago I had a text to arrange my annual COPD review. This is normally with the practice nurse who can prescribe medications too. I was surprised to be given a Doctor appointment. I am mild COPD and was taking Salmeterol and Carbocisteine. It seemed quite effective. The doctor advised that I

Concerned about bowel cancer

I am worried about becoming ill and leaving my husband and children behind and recently through googling my symptoms are coming up with colon cancer (I know, stop googling). For context I have booked a GP appointment but she is

Colonoscopy Tuesday
Hello Everyone! I have been having mucous/blood in stool problems for several months now. I saw a doctor. Had blood work done and a stool sample taken. Blood work was fine. They did find dientamoeba fragilis in the stool sample but nothing else. I'm not experiencing pain. Most times soft stool. Mucous
