Post Colonoscopy worry
Hi, im 37 and have had colonoscopies and sigmoidoscopies before, each time finding polyps and removing them. I had a colonoscopy on Monday due to bleeding without bowels being open, plus a change in bowels, even during the same motion sometimes, and increase in urgency. They found a sessile polyp,

Cancer worries
I had a flexible
sigmoidoscopy
last year and nothing was found so it was suggested I have ibs. Now with my blood results and continuing stomach symptoms I am having a colonoscopy. I’m hoping it’s something like crohn’s disease, if anything, rather than cancer.

Bleeding from bottom!
I have a
sigmoidoscopy
on Thursday but cannot understand if in bowel, why no evidence of penetration through bowel on recent lap? I know i should just wait but 23 years of crap periods. Infertility and pain. Fed up.

I’ve done a colonoscopy,
sigmoidoscopy
, passed a SIBO test and a Geneva diagnostics stool test (malabsorption and lipase low, pancreas blood test later said it is fine)..scopies show inflamation and one showed signs of maybe ulcerative proctitis.

Anyone had a phosphate enema for a flexi-sigmoidoscopy or other procedure?
Hi, I'm being investigated for pelvic floor pain and anorectal pain and my colorectal consultant wants me to have a flexi-
sigmoidoscopy
. To have the flexi-sig I am due to have a phosphate enema. If you've ever had a phosphate enema, I'd be grateful to know how you got on with it.

Awaiting diagnosis
I've had a
sigmoidoscopy
with biopsies and CT and MRI scans. I get the results next week and expect cancer to be confirmed.

Appointment at a BSGE clinic
I've also been referred for a
sigmoidoscopy

My journey - no diagnosis
I have also been to see infectious (tropical diseases), ear nose and throat specialists, gastroenterology for a
sigmoidoscopy
(which showed up nothing) and scans (which I'm currently waiting to have done).

What’s happening with my bowels?
I had a
sigmoidoscopy
last Wednesday and the bowel appears to look normal and no inflammation, but it’s not in my head. I took photos so I can show saying it wasn’t normal. Anyone know what it is?

Intrinsic antibody test after B12 multivits
Interestingly my fatigue, weakness and dizziness increased after having entonox (gas and air) for a
sigmoidoscopy
(results clear but had due to severe IBS pain). I have had to take some time off work, been more clumsy and feel "all over the place" /foggy brained.

Horrendous flexible sigmoidoscopy
Hi, So today I had a flexible
sigmoidoscopy
to rule out anything significant bowel related to try and explain some bleeding and mucus along with the usual IBS symptoms and some inflammation detected in my bloods.

Big thanks to you all
I had my
sigmoidoscopy
today and am very pleased to say - all is well - I'm surprised how well I feel, we really don't appreciate how bad stress can make us feel.

Sigmoidoscopy yesterday
Hi, just a quick question had
sigmoidoscopy
yesterday. Very painful throughout. They took 6 biopsies. So I expected some bleeding. But this evenings bowel movement it looks like bits of flesh when I wiped. Is this normal? I have taken a photo but didnt want to put people off by posting it P

Tuesday as I’ve had pain in abdomen and back since the
sigmoidoscopy
. My consultant called me in today. He felt fluid in my tummy. Had blood test and scan has been booked. Maybe PET scan too. He wants to do a thorough investigation. It might not be a recurrence but I’m thinking it is.

Bowel endometriosis and bowel resection
I’ve had an MRI and today a flexible
sigmoidoscopy
due to endo infiltrating my bowel. It’s also in other places too so I’m looking at surgery which the gynaecologist and bowel surgeoin will do together. Part of my bowel has to be removed and the two ends joined- a resection.

I’m New Here And Need Some Support Please!
After such a painful experience I was told I needed more surgery for my endometriosis and was referred to an special endometriosis centre in 2016, which I have all the tests which include MIR,
sigmoidoscopy
and another lap 2017.

Inflammation.
Since my
sigmoidoscopy
three weeks ago Ive been getting tenderness and pain around the left rib area. My
sigmoidoscopy
showed that the thickness the CT identified was nothing. 👍🏻 I went to my Gp about these pains. He prescribed gaviscon and some other tablets.
