Ok, I have been suffering with diarrhea and stuff for a long time, like 9 years. I just turned 19 couple of months ago. GP thought I had celiac, but 3 years on a GF diet apparently wasn't curing me cause I was still having diarrhea almost daily.
He sent me to a GI for the first time, first thing he did was tell me to go on gluten again and said we would do an endoscopy and colonoscopy in 6-7 weeks or whatever.
This was back in october. I had the colonoscopy Dec. 9th.
I ended up only taking like half the prep but he told me I was clean enough. THANK GOD.
My issue is... I am still having diarrhea from the prep.
This supposed to happen? This was my first ever colonoscopy so I don't know anything about this. All I know is every time I eat I seem to get that watery diarrhea from the darn nuclear strength laxatives. My colonoscopy was only yesterday morning, so this might be normal, but it just seems like it won't go away. :(
I took 2 imodiums for this, didn't really help to be honest. lol. Nothing can counter those laxatives.
(If anyone is wondering... According to him both colon and small intestine looked fine... But we will see for sure once we get biopsy results I guess. Yay IBS diagnosis?)
