Hello Crazy-mum-of-5

I'm sorry to hear that you've had some ongoing health concerns with your bowels over the last few months. It's good to hear that you've already seen your GP and that, following some initial blood tests, you've now been referred for further investigations. It's understandable that you're feeling anxious. 

Has the hospital told you when you may get an appointment for a colonoscopy? Hopefully, it won't be too long before you're able to see the specialist. We know that for many people, this period of waiting and uncertainty can be really difficult. IF it would help to talk things through with one of our nurses, you can call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any advice, information and support they can. 

Hopefully you will get some reassurance from the specialists soon. Do let us know how you get on. 

Best wishes, 
Jenn
