I had a colonoscopy in 2016 and a pill can thing done in 2018 came back as problematic and symptomatic ibs but doctors are still going off these results saying u have had this done that done but am like yeah it was years ago things can change over the years

What is a pill can thing?

[Netbet22 in reply to lowraind]

I am frm the uk 🇬🇧 a pill cam is u swallow a little camera and wear this machine over u and the camera takes loads of images off your stomach intestines all the images go on to the machine that goes over u with a strap hangs down by waist just a little box thing then the gastroenterologist looks at all the images and get results a few weeks later

Besides, it is 7 years since the colonoscopy and in the US they usually do them every 7 years.

I have had this discomfort for 6-7 years off to liver specialist tomorrow for a contrast scan as I have simple liver cysts also and I feel this may be causing the discomfort if they are growing. Also my bloods were a bit off this time again ..
