Hi. Marco here. Two years ago I was diagnosed with bladder cancer. That one has been successfully treated. Now, severe constipation, pain in abdomen (right side) blood in stools and colonoscopy Friday. My sanity has had such a hit that I am struggling to do day to day activities... desperately looking for something to cling on...

Symptoms:

1.severe constipation.  No bowel movement without cosmocol.

2. Bloating

3. Dull pain in right lower abdomen

  • Welcome to the forum Marco although I'm sorry to hear about the symptoms you've been contending with recently.

    I know this must be worrying but I can see from your post that you have your colonoscopy tomorrow, so hopefully the results will be able to provide some good news and much needed peace of mind.

    Hopefully some of our members who have been through this will share their experiences and advice with you soon but in the meantime, I want to wish you the best of luck for tomorrow and let you know we'll be thinking of you.

    If you have any questions after you've had your colonoscopy, you can speak with our cancer nurses on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday (except bank holidays) between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very insightful and will do all they can to help.

    Kind regards,

    Thanks Steph. I hope that if it is something it is at least treatable. Will let you know.
