Hi

New here. After being referred to SAU due to pelvic pain and having a dye infused scan I have been referred for a colonoscopy.  I asked at SAU if they thought I had cancer and they said they can’t say for certain until further tests.  Faces looked serious and two Drs came to give me results.

i had my regular stool sample test for bowel cancer in May last year and it came back OK. I am in pain and exhausted and feel sick a lot.  But have been prescribed antiemetics to handle that.

I’m not looking forward to the colonoscopy particularly the prep as I am hugely emetophobic.  But know I just have to get on and do it.
