Colonoscopy

Hi every one I’m due for a colonoscopy on Tuesday I’m feeling really scared don’t really feel.upto the procedure as I really suffer with stress and anxiety but I know I need to do this  I have been feeling as if I need to poo but some times it’s just reddish pus and feeling very gassy but because of feeling I need to poo I’m always in the bathroom , been having problems for a while now. I thought maybe I just had internal piles but when I went to my gp doctor couldn’t see or feel any thing so did a fit test which came back positive  so I was referred for a colonoscopy  I’m so scared of having cancer  not looking forward to the bowel prep  I think your all a lot braver than me   Xx

  • Hi James , happy New Year to you. What great news that  your on the mend,and recovery is going so well for you. The bloating is uncomfortable but it will eventually subside and go in time,once ypur bowel gets its normal rhythm back,your doing so well,and the scars well ,they are a gentle reminder of just how strong ypu are. Just listen to your body,it will soon tell you when youve done too much,and when you need to rest up. That tumour is gone  , its a new year a  new you, which is fantastic.x
