scared of colonoscopy, need someone to talk to       07/12/06 05:40 PM Edit Reply Quote littlelani Reged: 06/17/06 Posts: 387 Loc: Asheboro, NC I was diagnoased w/IBS-A in January 2006. I was doing well controlling it with my diet & Levsin for several months, but something changed in May. I have no idea why but I started getting worse; cramping, urgency, a LOT of pain. I went to see a gastroenterologist today, & she told me I have to have a colonoscopy. I'm terrified!! I almost started crying right there in the Dr's office! I've heard so many horror stories about how much they hurt & how bad you feel afterwards. I just need someone to talk to who has been through it & can hopefully calm my fears. My boyfriend is very supportive but he's never had one either so, although he's been very kind & understanding, he doesn't realize how scared I am. -------------------- IBS-A...I can never make up my mind Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
