Hi all went to gp yesterday. Today lm off for blood test testing for ovarian cancer markers as it can mimic ibs as lm 63 he though it best. If all comes back clear he’s going to bk me another colonoscopy last one 5 yrs ago. That showed diverticulosis an lve had lbs d an c for 20 yrs. bin on god map couple yrs tho should only be short term but everything upsets me. I find my pattern is bad cramps in toilet most of evening emptying out then no bowel movement for 3 or 4 days then cycle begins again.

I had this blood test last month. I hope you get a negative result, like myself. I was so worried. Good luck xxx

I’ve had this blood test got a negative result but I have a large cyst on my ovary I have been wondering if this affects the bowel and I don’t have ibs after all?

That’s a relief nothing sinister. What hospital going to do about it?? I wonder if it’s causing you problems?

Doc wants me to have a mri and then I’m hoping they will take it out. It’s all a waiting game isn’t it?
