Has anyone had a capsule endoscopy?
I’ve had a gastroscope and a colonoscopy now the gastroenterologist has suggested a capsule endoscopy just to check my small intestines. I nervous about swallowing such a large looking pill especially as I normally crush pills if I can. I also hate the thought of taking any kind of prep again, I found

Good outcome after colonoscopy.
Just had the colonoscopy, they found one polyp, and Diverticulosis, which is manageable with diet control. The good news no cancer ! I watched the hole thing as they were doing it just had a bit of gas and air at the start, it was ok only a bit of discomfort. With being anemic I have to have a Endoscopy

The gift that keeps on giving.......

Being dismissed because I’m on contraceptive pill
Last year, I had an abnormal smear result and attended a
colposcopy
clinic in January 2021. As the doctor was talking to me before the procedure, he mentioned that he’d looked at my notes and ultrasound scans and thinks I was misdiagnosed with PCOS. Which was a shock.

Colonoscopy Help
I will be having to have a Colonoscopy at some point. I need to pluck up the courage first! I had one 19 years ago and the prep was horrendous so I have been totally put off having a repeat performance! I was wondering if the prep has been improved? I was purged so much the last time I thought there

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. At first I didn’t notice any difference

Spider Angioma?
Hi there - What might this be? I've had this kind of mark on my abdomen for many years (since I used to live in West Africa) but recently it looks to be getting more pronounced or "longer" across my abdomen (horizontal). After I shower or work out, it seems like the vein-aspect goes away and its just

Has anyone who has colitis have severe constipation that laxatives have no effect. Doctors need to see lining of bowel 1 failed colonoscopy?
Laxatives for colonoscopy failed. Go back to hospital next week for CT colonography. Now drinking different bowel prep. I have severe bowel dysfunction, (slow transit colon). I'm really anxious as my pain has got much worse and it's like I can feel my colon is inflamed. What happens if these laxatives

Feeling dehydrated even with drinking 2-3 liters per day
Has anyone been troubled with dehydration with CLL? My CLL was diagnosed in July as result of hospital admission for acute sigmoidal diverticulitis (never had this before). I am on W&W, my ALC was 20 from what I remember during that acute illness. RBC's, platelets and Hgb all preserved. Since that
