Colonscopy a week ago - soft constipated stools?!

So, I thought getting a colonsocpy would make me feel more assured but it's done the opposite.

It bcame back clear but now I"m constipated - really badly and i have to push so hard to go and when I do it's soft yuccky stool!

I have IBS but have not heard of this?

Any thoughts?

I had diaherroa the day after the CT colongraphy and then slowly it's just gotten harder and harder to have a BM and now it's impossible but I squeeze out thin soft ribbons.

I am SO OVER THIS..... I can't keep living like this it's driving me nuts.

Any help?

I've had soft ribbons etc, what I use s "dulcolax".  I found that anything that my doctor gave just made it worse,  go bk to yr doctor maybe he/she will be able to suggest something better for you, u could try prune juice which is natural to soften your motions.  

Hi kinder, I agree with other forum member prune juice would help. Good luck

This is no easy fix im afraid. Once u have ibs it can be tough n unbareable some days!! Doesnt seem to go away. Dont give up there is meds n things out there that help and relax you to easy day to day life, try the prune juice, also have u changed ur diet?? Cut out certain things that trigger it off?? Have u ever or ur gp tested ur poo??

Dont give up the fight, take control x

I have found some foods can trigger I.b.s. Off, if I eat baked potato 2times that can cause an ibs flare up. Keep a food diary,, write down what happens when u eat certain foods, u can then change yr diet, to accommodate that, it will help u to know what causes yr ibs to kick off.
