colonoscopy

Post by thedell19 »

Well back from colonoscopy-

Colon looked normal, small intestine looked normal, took biopsies of the rectum, right and left and transverse colon. Next friday I have a small bowel followthrough... woopie. SO nothing terrible going on so far. One more test and the biopsies should give a bigger picture.

The drugs were great; I actually was not totally asleep and I got to see some of my colon and I actually saw them take biospies... then I stopped looking and dozed back off because they gave me more meds.
Dr Fine test shows positive for gluten and casien but negative for soy, eggs, and yeast
Maybe its UC maybe its MC? Who knows at this point, but at least I know my intollerances now... so heres to the road to healing!

Hi Terps!

YAY- it's over! Sounds as if it's not UC if the colon looked normal. Good news, huh? Now we'll have to see if the MC shows up on the biopsies.

Love,

Polly
