    no this has not happened to me, but if the doctors are aware of your experience and their not concerned, I wouldn't let it bother me. FOLLOW through with it once again and see if your body flushes out your colon.

    Let the DR's lead and not your fear...Also, let us know if all went well.

    i had to have a sigmoidoscopy two years ago..

    i asked for the clinic to use an enema as i was nervous to do it myself and i really didnt want to ask hubby to do it for me..

    hope u feel better once its all out

    think of this as a practice run..!
