It's very painful unfortunately. I had pain, and painful bowel movements overnight and am in pain this morning. As I write this I have a heated gel pack on my abdomen and have taken two extra strength tylenol. I am in pain after I eat and after bowel movements.(even if they are soft). I agree we are like sports cars. This will be my 3rd colonoscopy. I've had two sigmoidoscopies too. I want to find out what's causing this and to avoid surgery if possible. My colonoscopy is early on the morning of January 28th so my prep is January 27th. Using pico salax again. At least it's only two packets. Thanks cowgirl!
