Anyone else have a Redundant / Tortuous Colon?

I have this condition and used to have problems with constipation, bloating and abdominal discomfort. I tried taking a Metamucil-type (generic) fiber powder in water each day and it's made all the difference! I have regular bowel movements and feel greet. My GI doc has me undergo a colonoscopy every 18 months, as he's found a number of polyps and I have a family history of colon cancer.

Thank you for the input. I have this condition. For some reason I tried Metamucil years ago and I didn't like it- I didn't think it helped, so I stopped trying. After reading your comments, I think I'll try it again, as this is really messing with my health. Thanks.
