Hi All,

I am just curious to see if anyone has been through similar, and what their outcome was?

I haven't felt myself since probably last year, I have felt fatigued, suffer from painful burning legs, night sweats, bloated tummy, change in bowel habits. 

After lots of back and forth to the GP, they did bloods and found I was extremely low in Iron and Vitamin D. I started on supplement in January, but haven't felt much better. 

I went back to the GP in March as I went through a couple of days of feeling so poorly, and my legs were burning. He gave me a FIT test, which came back positive. 

I was put on the urgent 2 week pathway for a Colonoscopy. The bowel prep didn't work as well as they needed it to, so it was a failed test. He said he was able to see some bits but not all so I would need to come back for one, still on the Urgent pathway, and have one in the next couple of weeks this is with 7 days low residue diet and different bowel prep.  

I'm just surprised they wanted me to do it all again so quickly? It would of been less than 3 weeks from my 1st to second one, and I have to go for bloods to check my Kidneys because  of the bowel prep? 

I'm trying not to worry, but it all feels very overwhelming! 

Thank you
