Colonoscope procedure

I had this procedure on 13th dec .. Yer unlucky for some ! I still have awful cramps ,pains , bloating. I cant stand for long, have a continuios nagging pain when i lay at any other angle than on my back ..sore lower back. Feel sick n loss of appite... Bowels workin all ok. Before this took place i had none of these symtons and not told of any risks of getting them.. I had private care which so far hasnt helped me in anyway ... Anyone any idea wot the problem can be ?

I tried to ring hospital but coulnt get thro to anyone. Have been to GP who gave spasmonal pills for the cramp..was told to go with it for 3/6 months. Wishing i had not had the test ! Specilist said ther were signs of diviculitus as most people over 50 av it.. Its so painful tho n wasnt xpectin any problems ...  Thanks for yr input..

Did you reconsult the GI Specialist who did the Colonoscopy?  This may have been cause by the procedure or the procedure aggravated something aready brewing.

It may have been caused by the procedure. You need to talk to that doctor or another GI specialist. I only had bloating and cramps for one day. It could be diverticulosis or if you have a fever diverticulitis too.
