Laparoscopy and uterosacral ligaments
Hi, I had a lap in November and because it was more severe than expected my gynaecologist requested an MRI and a flexi
colonoscopy
. I have a severe bowel endo but “luckily” no endo directly in my bowel.

IBS and swelling abdomen
I had a
colonoscopy
last Aug. Result was diverticulosis and IBS My concern is my abdomen seems to swell up as the day goes on with pain. Seems the swelling goes down a little after I wake up in the morning. Doctor has not given me a solution to what this is. I've had many scans and tests.

Possible ET but triple negative
So ive had a ct scan, a gastroscopy and
colonoscopy
but nonee of those showed anything that could explain secondary thrombocytosis. As a result im off for a Bone marrow biopsy on tuesday. Will this definitely find out if I have ET?

My GP wants me to have blood tests...
During a recent appointment for a
colonoscopy
my GP has insisted I go in for blood tests. However my procedure and outcome for the
colonoscopy
were fine, but I am asking for a repeat prescription for my B12 (agreed I self inject at home for the last year).

Advice on a lower GI investigation with a swallowed camera as a hospital in-patient.
My
Colonoscopy
showed diverticulosis and polyps which were removed. The pain etc has continued. I have been phoned by our local hospital to come in to hospital to prepare for the procedure that involves swallowing a capsule sized camera that takes pictures recorded on a belt thing I wear.

So much pelvic pain, any advice?
Hi All, I've been having pelvic pain on and off for many years, but lived fine with it before. However, in the last 5 months, it's gotten worst and in the last few weeks, it's gotten even worst again. I've already done: * All types of gynae assessments from a scan, to PAP and other tests, to

Thyroidectomy
Next Monday I'm due to have a gastroscopy and
colonoscopy
because of my out of range full blood count and blood in my stool. My question here is how am I to decide when to take my Levo and then my other BP tablets giving enough gap between both.

IBS "single location" burning sensation.
After an ultrasound scan, I had a
colonoscopy
in late 2020. The
colonoscopy
report says, some parts of the ascending and the traverse colon were "dirty", yet the result was "normal
colonoscopy
". I assume they did not assess that the colon was unprepared for the
colonoscopy
then.

Swelling, pain and cramp in left side of abdomen
He has had 12 Colin polyps removed and is waiting for another appointment for
colonoscopy
. The polyps removed were pre cancerous. His mobility is very bad now, shuffling with a walker to the bathroom and sleeping in his clothes. His personal hygiene is appaling. Sorry for the rant.

Intestinal upset (diarrhea, tiredness, slight nausea) from ferrous sulfate?
Diarrhea was very watery similar to a
colonoscopy
prep. I don't think I had a fever but only measured it once (97.2 F). I got very tired and would sleep most of the day. My wife and I eat much of the same stuff and she has been fine. Could my problem be due to iron sulfate?

Penis pain/ED: could it be fungus?
I had a theory that maybe it was fungus from the girl (I know from a
colonoscopy
done prior to this that revealed I had somewhat of a larger amount of Candida in my intestines, so maybe that didn’t help either), and that it just kept creeping into my penis and thus is not visible on the penis itself.

What actually causes weight gain?
Last month I learned via a
colonoscopy
that I have developed a recumbent colon. This is very obvious now in my permanently bloated belly. Unfortunately, there's not much one can do about it. When I asked my haemo about the connection between a redundant colon and the hydroxy, he dismissed it.

I’m so confused
I had a
colonoscopy
and endoscopy due to everything and the results came back fine, but there was internal hemorrhoids. They took a biopsy of something but the results were nothing of an issue.

many thanks!
My daughter has been struggling since she first started high school and been fobbed off so many times by different GPs and had so many tests, including a
colonoscopy
and an ultrasound, that it would be good to finally be getting somewhere.

colonoscopy fear.
Can anyone tell me why you can’t have a general anaesthetic to have a
colonoscopy
? I have asked the Doctor this and he said well you can be sedated.But this is not what I want. He said they need you slightly awake to listen to their instructions to move your leg etc.

comprehensive stool tests
I have had a
colonoscopy
, a gastroscope, a pill camera endoscopy, various ultrasound sound scans and a ct scan. I’ve been tested for coeliac disease, h pylori and had biopsies from the gastroscope.

symptoms persist after Covid
I had my last
colonoscopy
about 8 years ago, but woke up with no hearing in one ear. My doctor and I have an agreement that I will do a fecal occult blood test ("stool smear test") every year instead of the
colonoscopy
(I couldn't do another one of those as it would give me extreme anxiety).
