I have been having pain in my upper left abdomen for you who don't know what I have been through...if you would like, go and read my profile....

Well, it's been almost a year and just found out on Monday after my colonoscopy, that wasn't completed...My colon is twisted more than a normal person's and I go back to my GI specialist on the third of september to go over my options...I have no idea what those options are but nervous and anxious about them too!! My test wasn't completed as my gi specialist couldn't get the scope through my colon and I have been in pain since then because he had aggrivated it! I am jsut glad to know what has been causing my constant pain....I will keep you all updated on my situation!

Take care....

Tracey

" im sooo pleased for you, the best thing is knowing what is wrong then you can focus on fixing it. my husband has been going through something very similar and they are thinking now that maybe he is twisted too. he is having a MRI next friday so we are hoping that they will finally find out what is wrong with him.

the wrost thing is not knowing so i am very please you now know and we are hoping for the same. "

" Mine has a twist that makes Colonoscpy cause severe pain for weeks after. I know how you feel. I have refused to let them do anything though because other than that I have no other problems.

Good luck "
