Health anxiety - reining it in while you undergo tests: can you?
I’ve had a mammogram, an endoscopy, a
colonoscopy
, ECGs, a CT scan (that went wrong), an MRI, at least 4 ultrasounds (of separate parts of the body) and numerous other checks, blood tests and stool tests, just in this one year.

Cancer scared Waiting for hospital
They took blood samples and all come back as good she has referred me for
colonoscopy
and endoscopy. Had a telephone assessment from the hospital who have agreed and said I will be booked in asap and if nothing is found then they will sort out an MRI or CT scan.

CT colonoscopy
Hi yes I had this procedure. Absolutely no pain or feeling at all. Doesn’t last long and had tea and biscuits afterwards.

Advice and support on upcoming Colonoscopy
Hi Forum Family, I have been scheduled for a
Colonoscopy
at the end of the month and honestly, I am terrified. I have been under Anesthesia before and I have woken up after, struggling to breathe. But I was also 70 pounds heavier! And 15 years younger with no Parkinson's.

Ct colonoscopy
Anybody had one? Do you know why I’d need bloods done first? I believe it’s much less invasive than a normal one and doesn’t require sedation.

Welcome respite from IBS
I have been suffering with IBS due I think to diverticuliti discovered when I had a
colonoscopy
about 6 years ago. It got so bad I was sent to hospital for tests when I had a recent flare up. A couple of months ago I started 16 hour fasting usually from 6pm to 10am.

Scared
I got a sigmoidoscopy because I couldn’t do a
colonoscopy
at the time. Now I’m two months postpartum and have a
colonoscopy
scheduled for December. I’m really worried about CC because of black parts in stool, blood, and sometimes diarrhea and constipation.

Colonoscopy
My Gastroenterologist wants me to have a
colonoscopy
, he says he can check liver, etc at the same time. Has anybody any idea what this procedure is called? He gave it a name but as usual I was flustered and forgot.

Spider Angioma?
I've been through most tests (x-ray, CT scan of abdomen, extensive lab tests but not liver specific, endoscopy,
colonoscopy
, etc.) and they've returned normal. Concerned but my doctor thinks I'm just paranoid or crazy! Figured someone here might have some experiences they could share.

I also had a
colonoscopy
because of blood in my poo. The doctor thought I had a bowel tumour but following 2 MRI's when nothing showed he was unsure why.

Infectious IBS
Bloods, stool sample and
Colonoscopy
came back clear.
Colonoscopy
procedure was way less scary then I thought. I did it with gas and air and it was fine. So basically after all this he said it was just a case of post infectious ibs that normally take about 3/4 months to clear.

Rectum Bleeding 3 years
I’ve had a
colonoscopy
in feb 2020 it was all clear. Said no polyps nor signs of inflammation. Dr told me to take more fiber and stool softener of which I did. But the fiber just made me feel full and felt like it made things worse.

How many bowel movements?
Also I had a
colonoscopy
and nothing was found. Is it possible the doctor missed something? I'm so tired of these lower abdominal cramps or dull abdominal ache before bowel movements. Why is this my life now ?! Sorry just need to get it out a bit. It's been a tough couple days.

All scans have come back clear!?
Also
colonoscopy
and laroscopy. I'm currently seeing a gastroenterologist privately as I'm not getting to the bottom of the pain. Dr has referred me to have another endoscopy with ultra sound attached. I have drank alchahol for about 20 years and more than the recommended amount.
