Because both my late grandmother and sister have had bowel cancer, I have a colonoscopy regularly to make sure that if I get it, action can be taken quickly. I also have the NHS bowel cancer check once every row years and pay privately the other year. It costs about £40.
I do have IBS and Diverticular problems but nothing that can't be dealt with.
My only remaining problem was that I often need the loo (bowel department) up to 3 times a day, which can be quite inconvenient when out and about.
The specialist said that to combat this problem I could take an Imodium tablet occasionally just to slow things down and that I would not become constipated.
Well I am so pleased to report his advice has been really useful and at the times I start to go 3 times a day I take one tablet and all is sorted out. I might only be taking one or two tablets a month and I feel so much better.
Of course if I had a stomach upset I would take the recommended dose.
I hope this might help others with the same problem.
Fruit flies - help needed please.
