colonoscopy pain

i had a colonoscopy on 6th october 2018 it was really painful and the consultant didnt care i was screaming for him to stop and all he said was that it was taking him too long with all my screaming, he eventually aborted the procedure and used a smaller camera which was a little better but not much. he didnt go right to the end of my colon and was very dismissive about my trauma.I felt very let down as nothing was explained to me at all, only that as far as he could see there was no cancer, so what were the lesions on my colon that were seen on a ct scan. I will be reporting this as soon as i can. and by the way NO the sedation didnt work.

  • I had a colonoscopy and endoscopy at the same time under general anesthetic. I waited all day to be seen, I had given permission to deal with any issues. When I finally went into surgery and explained I'd given that permission the only team member there aggressively started to say we haven't got ti.. he was clearly about to say time. The same hospital missed my friends cancer and the same hospital has left me waiting for 2 years for gynecology its no wonder they are measured as inadequate! A lot of my issues could be linked but in England we do not treat the body as a whole and have to wait for appointments for each department who then do not communicate with each other. 

    On a positive big cheer for the adult day centre that I attended today fabulous staff explanations and treatment.
