I am new had colon transit test last week drank indium iostope (I think) and then had gamma camera images for 7 days but isotope did not move. Wondering what is next?

Have had multiple surgeries for endometriosis is the past, chronic daily migraine which causes speech loss and dystonia and fibromyalgia. Consultant told me something about my muscles is not quite right but no ones knows what the problem is but he suspects it is now affecting digestive system

No bm for at least 7 days but usually longer, laxatives not very helpful, Get leakage once I finally go and now totally fed up

I had the same test. They’re supposed to give you a diagnosis based on how far the isotope got or what happened. That’s why they take those images daily. My doctor was absolutely awful too. Push for an answer xxxx
