Bowel pain

have you asked for a referral for colonoscopy 

They have checked it out and just tell me it’s fine and will take time to get better, in the mean time I need some relief.

Hi there 

oh no I’m sorry you’re in so much discomfort and I’m glad you’ve been checked out 

I have IBS and during chemo and after I finished my bowel issues flared up . I take probiotics and they literally are a game changer ( I couldn’t take them during chemo and boy did I miss them !) 

Maybe check with your team first but lots of people take them 

I use symprove and biomel and honestly the difference is unbelievable . I did used to have kimchi and kefir but they make my symptoms worse with the medication I am currently on 

Also for general relief you could try peppermint capsules / tea , be careful of your fibre intake , keep your fluids up , drink plenty of water ,  try and keep active if you can and if you have painful cramps I use buscopan

Thank you Dollydimple for you lovely message.  My husband has been to get me some probiotics today.   I will be giving this a go. X
