recently had colonoscopy and then 3 weeks later Ct scan on colon. Both of these procedures I had to take bowel prep. So with in 3 weeks 2 lots of bowel prep.

Now, nearly 3 weeks on I keep getting stomach pains and feeling nauseous.

Anyone else had this?

Hello sorry you had a bad time with your colonoscopy thing I had 2 of the bloody things in a month 5/6 polyps removed 1st one then further 3/4 more removed 2nd time so I had little chance to recover in between PREP stuff disgusting as if I wasn't having problems with my bowels as it was I sure did that month early 2021 so yes I do sympathise with you only 2 well with being told I had IBS/Diverticular Disease thinking a course of antibiotics ( Oh how wrong was I!!! ) They shoved me out the door FODMAP sheet as if I had a medical degree still having problems this year 23 so had colon scan early this year and scan as if was having a baby ( 62 years old unlikely ) but I suppose they had 2 rule out other things as I got a history with Breast Cancer all well and said it's fast approaching the end of another year still got IBS/Divert Disease pain, agony and just putting up with it bloody house bound in fear of my bowels wish I could be of more help all I can say is try to take care and wish you well x
