Pain after colonoscopy

Posted , 2 users are following.

I had a colonoscopy on Saturday it's now Monday. I had 1 pylop removed. I am experiencing a stitch type pain in my right side. I have not been passing blood or have no fever but do feel drained. I know I may be sore inside from it. It was a pretty horrible experience and was painful until I either passed out or the sedative kicked in not which!

    Oh the question I meant to ask before remembering the experience and forgetting was.... Is this stich like pains normal?

    No, it isn't normal to have pain after. You should contact the doctor. I too had a couple of what I call, bad colonoscopies in that I was aware of what was going on and the pain of it. I have to go in soon for a sigmoid and really not looking forward to it. I told them I need to be out for the whole thing. If I feel anything this time I am getting a lawer.
