hi

i have had a colonoscopy today first part seemed to be easy going then towards the end she was trying to retrovert near i think the rectum and it wouldnt go where she wanted it to and caused severe pain she then asked if i had had surgery on my anus rectum before and if i have bleeding from there .

i answered no to both she also took 6 biopsies during the procedure .

would anyone know why she was unable to retrovert and why she would ask those questions ? im now worried she may think it is something sinister and waiting for the biopsy results is worrying .

Thanks
