If I've had blood work and stool tests, after the Colonoscopy, are there any other tests I would need before getting a diagnosis of IBS?

I have to take the Phospho-Soda in 10 minutes and my anxiety level is really increasing...I don't know why I'm so afraid, but I am really freaking out now!

Shelby - It's good to know that someone else out there is allergic to many medications, too. Do you know if you were given Propofol and Versed as your sedation? I hear it's very quick-acting...right to sleep and awake almost immediately. I am already into the prep now and it isn't terrible yet, but, I can see where it's heading...

Thank you so much for your support. I think it's time for bed. I have to be up before 4 am to take the next dose of Phospho-soda. I'll let you know how it goes.

Not on the GI side. Gyno probems should have been ruled out as well.

What time is it with you now?
Hope the headache went! Watch the dehydration...and get LOTS of rehydrating fluids in after the procedure. Stress is a major headache trigger!

I just got back a little while ago. Everyone was right. The prep was the worst part. I did the first one at 6pm last night and it was a breeze, probably because I was allowed to stay hydrated for the evening. The second one, however, at 3am was a horror!!! I became severely nauseated and could barely walk standing up. I didn't know how I'd ever make the one hour car ride there without throwing up, but I did. I thought they'd give me something for the nausea, but they told me that when I woke up from the anesthesia, the nausea would be gone...and they were right. The drugs were wonderful and I have no memory of the test. The results were great...in my eyes. No polyps, nothing to be found except a hemmorhoid. It's such a relief with all of the pain and bleeding. IBS is something I have to deal with now. Thank you all so much for your support. I couldn't have gotten through this without you!
