Sigmoidoscopy advice
Ive just been referred by gynae doctor to bowel specialist for a
sigmoidoscopy
, is it likely for endo to be seen on one of these as already had a colonoscopy and nothing showed up and wondered what the difference is.

Is it worth asking for pain relief/sedation for sigmoidoscopy?
Hi, I am having a flexible
sigmoidoscopy
next week and wonder if anyone has experiences of this to share? I am particularly wondering whether to ask for painkillers and/or sedation for the procedure?

IBS under control, but still pelvic pain
He did agree to refer me for a flexible
sigmoidoscopy
just for peace of mind, but it's now just back to the dr to see what tablets to try next!

Hospital for over a week-no answers.
I also had a flexible
sigmoidoscopy
yesterday (the two jugs of laxative I had to drink as prep was hell!! But the examination itself wasn't too bad) which came back normal; they took 7 biopsies but I have to wait 2 weeks for the result- but I'm sure they'll come back normal.

Diarrhoea after Sigmoidoscopy
Hello all, I had a
sigmoidoscopy
on Monday, and have had very bad diarrhoea since. I do suffer with IBS, but anything I eat is causing it. Its got to the point where I am limiting the amount I am eating.

Sigmoidoscopy clear...
Well, I had the procedure and they stated that everything looks absolutely fine, however waiting on biopsy results. Will get to see gastro on June 26th... I wonder what they're going to say? A tad nervous, as i think everyone, including myself, was hoping something would be spotted, due to my abdominal

Is it all in my head?
Also, I have just been to the toilet for the first time after the
sigmoidoscopy
. I haven't eaten much before or after it because I didn't want to upset it and now I have painful diarrhoea and bloating, I'm so frustrated and wish the doctors would find something so I can try and take control.

Uncertain endometriosis
I have had a smear, an internal and external ultra sound, blood tests, x-Ray and yesterday I had a
sigmoidoscopy
, all of these have come back normal (though I am waiting on biopsy results from yesterday) I am seeing my gyno on Thursday who wants me to have a laparoscopy, as she says that's the only way

I just wish the pain would stop!
I was so hoping that they would see something on the flexible
sigmoidoscopy
because I honestly don't know if this pain is the endo and Adenomyosis or my bowel or both? It constantly hurting on my left side pelvis, back and leg all the time.

Just need to talk
The doctor thought it was an hernia (but no hernia was found there), then I had a ct scan and a flexible
sigmoidoscopy
that didn't show anything. The pain is still there and getting worse.

Endo,IBS,IVF and everything in between.
I was refered for a
sigmoidoscopy
last month, I was petrified, but it's not as bad as I thought it was going to be. The results of this, IBS. Fantastic, another one to add to the list! Haha.
