When you had your procedure did the Endoscopy department give you a leaflet with a helpline number to call if concerned? If they did, then call it for advice. If not, then you have the option of calling 111 and asking to speak to a nurse for advice following a colonoscopy. 111 should be able to say whether and how soon you need to speak to a doctor. If you do need to contact GP, you tell them 111 say I need to be seen within X hours so there shouldn't be any argument about giving you an appointment. An advantage of calling 111 is that this should log things onto your health record (although there are some computer issues which have affected that recently). Another option is to call a nurse using the CRUK nurse helpline or a helpline for one of the charities that deal with bowel issues. Hope everything settles down. I think it might be helpful to ask for a bit of advice specific to your situation from a health professional as people on here won't know what other conditions you might have, which could impact on what you need to do. Take care. 

Hello,

I think if the bleeding continues, gets worse and is not getting better then you could contact the colonoscopy unit to let them know or as RoseStarBlue has said you can call the NHS on the number 111 for advice.

Only take Imodium if you have diarrhoea  

You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

Take care,

Caroline
