IBD symptoms with no diagnosis
I was just diagnosed with IBS 6 months ago, before my 40th birthday. It started with persistent constipation, bloating and cramping that led to a colonoscopy. Since my mother has Crohn's, I expected the same diagnoses, but instead I got an all clear from the GI doctors. The months that followed put my

My IBS Team Sheet – 1. Muscular pain in chest (How I manage)
Six years ago I was diagnosed with IBS after enduring a colonoscopy and experiencing a bout of haemorrhoids for the first time. A few months after diagnosis I experienced my first pain in the chest and like most people think, I thought I was having a 'heart attack'. Having lived with my brain for 56

Unbearable pain
I started taking Lansoprozole about a week ago following an Endoscopy and colonoscopy. Am on a twice daily dose of 15mg for GERD. Relieved to say that nothing suspicious has been found.I'm experiencing terrible chest and stomach pains and am spending a lot of my time sleeping to escape the pain. Does

Has anyone here discovered they have endometriosis/and or adenomyosis at a later stage in life? Just found out at 50!
Right now I am sad and very angry. I have been under my local gynae and gastroenterology departments for over 20 years. That’s 20+ years of endless gastro tests for my ongoing digestive issues (I’ve had 2 colonoscopies, 2 gastroscopes, blood tests, fit tests, a scan for bile acid malabsorption). During

Colonoscopy update
PMRPro suggested I start a new post for the update on ‘Colonoscopy and Prednisolone’, so here it is. Firstly I’d like to thank everyone for their support and suggestions, which were very helpful. I survived the pre procedure routine, disgusting though it was and spent A LOT of time perched on the

Precancerous polyps removed, new symptoms 8 years later
So 8 years ago I had a colonoscopy due to severe constipation, a backup in my bowels, mucus and slight bleeding. They removed seven polyps, four of which were pre-cancerous, the largest polyp being 7 mm. They told me to be checked again in 4 years which I was, and it came back clear. Lately, I'd say

Any advice for gastro symptoms which respond to steroids, but no diagnosis? Does normal colonoscopy cover the small bowel?
hi all, I hope it's ok to post here - I don't have a diagnosis of crohn's or colitis but am looking for information. I'm diagnosed coeliac (6+ years ago) and autoimmune hypothyroid, with ongoing and increasing gastro symptoms - the main problem being that I feel extremely unwell like I've got flu

Concerned, nervous…

Colonoscopy polyp worries
Hiya there, 34yo male here who had a colonoscopy 2 weeks ago after having abdominal and back pain, constipation on and off since June. I had a positive FIT test which my doctor believes to be because I have an anal fissure and I have rectal bleeding. The colonoscopy was clear apart from a 4mm sessile

Could this be IBS?
Hiya everyone, 34yo male who is really struggling right now with gastrointestinal problems. Looking for some advice please. Since June of this year I've been having really bad abdominal and back pain on and off in cycles - it's worse at times and better at times - it really does come and go. I'm badly

Biopsy
Friends, I am requesting your prayers as I go for a humerus(arm) biopsy and also colonoscopy next week. It looks like metastatic breast cancer with a couple more questionable sites. Maybe I'll get a couple of meals on Tues. Otherwise it's 4 days of liquid diet! I've been trying for weight loss but .

Has anyone had Plenvu bowel prep?
I have to have a colonoscopy and have been given Plenvu. Have seen some awful experiences of people with it on line. Can anyone let me know how they found it?

Movicol/colonoscopy prep for IBS relief
Hi all, I have predominantly IBS-D but occasionally I have bouts of horrific IBS-C (I can go up to a week without any bowel movements). This is accompanied by horrific bloating/acid reflux and uncontrollable eggy gas. It can go from a few days to months. I’ve had to be signed off work before because

Another update….high platelets….
Just a quick recap and an update on my latest appointment…. I have been under the care of an Haematologist for two years now, referred by my GP for consistently high platelet counts found during routine blood tests. Platelets usually around 565, highest being 622. I have no symptoms although I do also
