Hi All, Firstly sorry I've not been in touch - it's been a very busy time with tests, scans, x-rays and the like, as my body seems to be going to pieces at the moment! I even felt proud of myself for overcoming my anxiety and spending 1 hr 10 mins having an MRI scan for my spine (scoliosis has worsened

I've been refused any scans or imaging, and have been fobbed off by my GP. The NHS has failed me.
I'm a 27-year-old female and have been having symptoms since August 2020. I'll summarise my current situation (please see my previous posts for more detailed explanations). I've been having constant pain in my lower left abdomen near the hip bone. I can feel a lumpy area there (possibly my colon). The

Bowel endometriosis? Long post!
Hello everyone. I'm new to this group and healthunlocked in general! I've been having all sorts of symptoms along with chronic pain for ages now and I'm at my wits end. To begin with, I've had periods of my life since I was 18 (I'm almost 28) where I've ballooned up and felt heavy in my pelvis and hips

My first smear aged 24 revealed a large cervical ectropian, which I needed a
colposcopy
for under GA. In the last 12 months my periods have been even heavier, more irregular and more painful.

Health Anxiety IBS
Hello Everyone, I am a 23 year old male who has been dealing with IBS and Gerd for about 3 years. I have had blood tests, H-pylori breath test, ultrasound and even colonoscopy. Also a chest x-ray one time I went to the hospital. None of these doctors have an answer for me so I feel like they are missing

Feel like my digestive system doesn’t work.
I’ll either have the runs, or be constipated for days on end, i had a colonoscopy 7 years ago - all ok, I always have bad wind (sorry) so much!! It’s like everything irritates my system, I had a celiac blood test years ago again normal. And recently I have this burning weird feeling in my lower left

Colonoscopy booked
Hey guys, I have a colonoscopy booked for May 10th and they plan to also have a look around in my stomach while out under. Just wondering if anyone has any experience and could let me know what to expect? I've never had one done before so not sure what to expect, if there is anything I should be aware

Advice please on Thyroid Blood Test Results
Hello, this is my first post and I'd really appreciate some help with my blood test results. I apologise in advance for the long post! I’ve had hypothyroidism symptoms for as long as I can remember. Reluctantly my GP agreed for me to try 25mg Levothyroxine about 6 years ago (I think to shut me up!)

Freaking out about this "tissue" in my stool! GRAPHIC!!
I am sorry about disgusting photo! I have had blood in my stool and pain in stomach. I have a colonoscopy on Thursday, but am just going crazy! Last night, I put on gloves and actually investigated my stool and was so scared and horrified to find these pieces of what look like (crispy) hot dogs or the

Advised to take hysterectomy to remove my womb after had colposcopy treatments. Endometriosis and adhesion treated by laparoscopy.
. 😂 I’ve been having smear test at least once a year since my first
colposcopy
treatment in 2003 and every year is the same. December 2018 they found endometriosis and adhesion with my first laparoscopy. By that time everyone could see Ive been repeatedly having problems one way or another.

Should I push for a colonoscopy sooner?
I have always had severe constipation, and aways told I have IBS-C. Eventually it got so bad no matter what I ate or drank, I resorted to taking laxatives way too frequently. Stool softeners alone didn’t help. I’ve already had a colonoscopy and endoscopy done few years ago and they said there was irritation

Colonoscopy and concerning symptoms
Hi all I've posted on here a few times in the past. My problems began while I was pregnant. I noticed blood spots in my underwear and some googling sent me down a dark hole. I'm now 6 months postpartum and my problems persist: incomplete evacuation, frequent bowel movements. No obvious blood in stool

Colonoscopy after RT
I’m 9 months out from finishing 35 rounds of RT. Does anyone know if there’s a minimum time one should wait after RT before colonoscopy?
