  • Hi Debbie, 

    I've been experiencing the same symptoms,  after finding blood in my poo and high inflammation. 
    Within 2 weeks I've had a colonoscopy mri and a ct and ctc scan.just waiting on the results.

    The gastrogaffin medicine was not nice tasting at all, but there's not much of it to take.. I flushed mine down with water straight away. please don't back out. It could save your life x
