    Haha yeah I've got the day off thankfully... Feel absolutely shattered now. Although I didn't exactly sleep well last night... kind of wanted to be conscious should I need to run to the toilet lol

    Treat yourself to something good to eat and don't be surprised if you don't "produce" anything for a few days as your bowel has probably seen enough action for a while!

    Really pleased for you though
    Thank you

    I was actually going to ask what the first bowel movements are like after and when they arrive lol.

    I'm not worrying now... I'd still like to know what's causing my pain, even if it's just IBS so I could at least take something or alter my diet to avoid flareups in the future, but yes I am very relieved now

    You probably need to rebalance your body salts like with the runs. Get plenty of water to rehydrate and get some minerals back into your body and rest up.

    Good luck KayeS! It will be fine, I know it! I had one years ago, was slightly sedated with it though as I preferred that. I didn't have to drink anything, it was a suppository. I'm possibly having another one after latest results so hoping it's the same this time :-/

    As I fully expected it would be Now, relish the moment knowing your fears were unfounded and then revisit the last months worth of threads about it. Take into consideration how deep you were in an anxiety spiral and now, take action to treat your real illness. Doing so will also help the symptoms you're experiencing from it.

    Absolutely will. I've already started inquiring into different therapy options and will go and see my doctor next week regarding possible medication. I just wanna have the rest of the week away from doctors lol
