Bummer! I just lost my post so will start again.
Do any of you have pix of you x-rays or other imaging of your tortuous colon that you'd like to share?
I posted mine on another thread today but will post them here also.
Screenshot of my tortuous colon via a Colonography I had in Sept 2015. The Report only stated a collapsed area in descending Colon.
And a screenshot of the plain x-ray taken on day 7 of the Bowel Transit Study, I had in June 2021. The wee circles you see are radiopaque markers which come in lots of 10 sealed in gel capsules and taken one capsule per day. The last capsule has 6 rectangle shaped markers – 66 radiopaque markers in total.
Normal diet & no laxatives during study. Only '1' tiny marker made it through the obstruction that is at my splenic flexure. For years I'd been repeatedly told by the head colorectal surgeon at my local hospital that I did not have an obstruction and did not fit the criteria to have a colonoscopy.
I've never stopped looking for answers and had some private consults with some womens health physio's and it was the head lecturer of the School of Physio whom after a number of examinations suggested in 2018 I did indeed have an obstruction in my descending colon.
It causes me much pain & problems as you can imagine.
