Yes, I had a colonoscopy on Monday where they removed a very small polyp and sprayed my bowel with blue dye. I feel very bruised and uncomfortable and it's now Thursday. Taking painkillers every day.

had 5 polyps removed during colonoscopy - also feel weak and bruised on right side - nagging aches after  week - had a cat scan no signs of problems - taking painkillers and being monitored at home with phone calls from unit . One begins to feel it won't resolve .Hopefully will diminish a bit debilitating ... 

I also think you are right about not being as gentle when you have sedation, it was so traumatic I was watching on screen trying to embrace it but they kept sedating me and being more rough they was so busy rushing me around to get sorted quickly I didn't even see Anyone after to go through side effects exc. I'm slightly worried because I'm in a lot of pain in my right side they took biopsy's at all corners apparently, after reading your comments I see that blood in stool is normal so had given me piece of mind. I've tried to contact doctors but they haven't got back to me I had this on Saturday and is now Wednesday 

I had a flexible sigmoidoscopy on Friday morning (3 days ago) and I still have cramps.

I was unsedated but they took 2 biopsies. 

It doesn't feel severe as they say but it feels like I've done 100 sit ups.

How long did it take for it to wear off I get married next week

Really want to be done with it.

I rested all weekend but have to work this week

I had colonoscopy 7 weeks ago & im still having unbearable pain,I went back to the unit after 4 days,Saw a trainee doc ,not that interested,after a   Six hour wait ,nurse gave me a packet of codiene,which I'm not able to take,Day 12 into hospital where I spent 4 days ,where I had lots of iv antibiotics & paracetamol via drip ,Have visited my GP twice ,Now at 7 weeks since procedure,I've booked in to see a private consultant,I do feel it's the only way to sort this out ,as I have no life at the moment ,I had 5 polyps removed ,one was difficult on the end of a diverticulitis pouch,I've rang the consultants secretary twice ,who tells me he's booked up for 6 weeks & its phone calls only ,disgusting.

I'm thinking the same after 7 weeks of hell,I feel like a prisoner,Day 12 I went back into different hospital,pain was just the same when they discharged me after 4 days,I'm getting worried now & pace around half the night with pain,something's definitely not right ,going private this week ,getting desperate now ,

I had a colonoscopy last saturday and had a large polyp removed,wasnt overly sore but since friday I've had a lot of stomach acid and my actual stomach is hurting,has anyone else had this?

Seems to be the norm, despite being told after 48 hours should be back to normal. I had a brutal 90 minutes probing and after 7 days I still feel painful and the urge to go constantly. I had 3 polyps removed, one 4.5cm that I had to "push" out, still waiting for results.

I had a Colonoscopy last Sunday still have stomach pains aweek on. Had a 4mm polyp removed  and diagnosed with diverticular disease.   I had diverticulitis a couple of years ago pain not has bad, more like a period, draggy pain.  Sometimes can be quite gripping.  Bowel movement not back to normal Should I  be eating a high fibre diet now?

Hi . I had colonoscopy last Friday, results are fine. But I still feel pain and bloated. I'm passing gas sometimes. It's difficult to lying bed one side or the other, feeling pain left side or right side. Is it normal ??? I don't go to toilet yet. Today Sunday and discomfort still there . 
 

I had a sigmoidoscopy 3 days ago, I was told all looked ok and no follow-up needed. 

I had gas and air and had some intense pain a couple of times during the procedure.  Since then I have felt really bloated even after small amounts of food and have an aching/stitch like pain in my left side, especially when sitting in a chair.  Had my first BM today which was ok. Is it normal to have these symptoms after a flexi sig? and if so how long do they last. Many thanks 

I had a colonoscopy coming up to 4 weeks ago now, but every now and then keep getting pain in my left side too. It's like a sharp stabbing pain by my ribs in the corner, I have a feeling that might be where they took one of the biopsy's from so could be that? But they took 6 biopsies and this is the only place I get pain. (Haven't had results yet) but my colonoscopy was quite painful I had to be given more sedation half way through so maybe it was due to this? I'm not sure. I've tried to ring doctors to check it's ok but can never get through. Does anyone know what this might mean? Worried as it's been nearly month and still hurting.
