I have had a
sigmoidoscopy
and was told it was normal. However I have had extreme fatigue, breathlessness, bloating, pain after eating, and either constipation or lose stools.

I first had a
sigmoidoscopy
and that was utterly humiliating. The prep didn't work and the doc wrote on my notes it failed because I wasn't clean and hadn't prepped properly. They just didn't believe I had done everything I was told to, I even starved myself for a week to prepare.

New to IBS
I had a
sigmoidoscopy
and an MRI and both were fine. I was then discharged from hospital with no diagnosis. I feel dreadful after dinner and have to lie down for half an hour, I am tired, my stools have changed, I have no energy and have problems going for a wee.

Sigmoidoscopy next week
I have seen a gastro consultant and they think ibs may have been misdiagnosed, I have a
sigmoidoscopy
booked for Monday to have a look inside my colon. When I have these ibs flare ups in the past I get unbearable pain in my abdomen that usually makes me pass out it's relieved by moving my bowls.

Woke up in pain
I'm glad I'm having the
sigmoidoscopy
next week, but worried it won't show anything, and they'll think I'm wasting their time. I've had the bleeding for at least a year, now.

Flexible sigmoidoscopy
Have any of you had a flexible
sigmoidoscopy
to check for Endo in your bowel? I have got to have this procedure and although I've read the booklet, I wondered what it is really like! Is this procedure good at detecting bowel Endo? Any advice on the bowel prep? Best wishes, Barbara x

I'm wondering whether anyone has suffered with the same problem as me? I have abdominal pain and constipation.
They have agreed to a flexible
sigmoidoscopy
which I have on Tuesday. I am terrified they are going to find a tumour. I have three children who need me. I'm also worried that it's bit a full colonoscopy as they might miss something.

Cyst found in pelvic and abdominal ultrasound
The specialist was great, he sent me for a pelvic and abdominal ultrasound and I had a
sigmoidoscopy
and botox in the fissures to treat them. After the surgery he told me my bowel was really healthy (thank goodness) but the ultrasound showed a cyst that he suspects is linked to the endometriosis.

any natural remedies for nausea????
I have been diagnosed with a functional bowel disorder following numerous tests which all showed up clear -
sigmoidoscopy
, endoscopy, barium enema. My main symptom is nausea especially in the morning which often results in dry heaving.

Is this really IBS??? so many of my symptoms arent really typical of IBS but 3 gastroentrologists all agree it is a functional bowel problem
I was then referred to further specialist who performed camera test into stomach and
sigmoidoscopy
all of which frustratingly came back clear!!!

Sigmoidoscopy?
Hello all, well finally going to get something done, not a colonoscopy but a
sigmoidoscopy
. Has anyone had one? Does it hurt? Do you have to go through the colon cleanse like with a colonoscopy?

Do I really need to have 2 operations?
Ive had a
sigmoidoscopy
and a rectal ultrasound which has confirmed endo penetrating through to the submucosal layer in the bowel. I saw my new gynae at the end of June who said it would need to be a full resection of the bowel and it needs to happen because of the risk of obstruction.
