I have to get a colonoscopy. I’m 21 and have been having stomach problems. The Dr. is giving me the omni prep pill version of the prep. How bad is the prep, does your stomach hurt a lot when you have to go to bathroom? I’m not even scared of the test itself, but I’m having some anxiety over the prep and I just want to know what to prepare myself for.

If not for yourself, does a family have any bowel problems? If so buy Dual Action Cleanse okay?

I need the money. Please?

I am thinking of taking a trip to a Thai spa and having a colon cleanse. Not the silly fifty pound health juices, I want to do the whole kit kaboodle. If it works.
It says that the colon is the ‘root of all disease’. I seriously doubt this, but then again I’m not a health professional.

So: does the colon cleanse actually work with health benefits? And does the whole fasting – raw – food jam work?

Thanks!
I’m centring on the colon bit – I know some people say it’s rubbish, but is there any sorta scientific proof?

This is a little bit of a story that started several months ago with some abnormal bleeding I was having.

The doctor did a inner uterine biopsy and found some abnormal cells that could but have not lead to cancer. He treated me with meddicine and the bleeding stopped. However 2 months later it came back.

First don’t get me wrong he is a wonderful wonderful man 99% of the time… First you must understand my husband made the decision for me that I would have a total adominal hysterectomy…. He said he was affraid if I did not do it I would die of cancer and he did not want this to come back on me… For 5 weeks I sat in waiting with the stress of this surgery coming up. I said to my husband MY BIGGEST FEAR was that I would have to go through this alone.

You also have to understand that he has a very very sivere case of epolepsy in which he has 1 to 4 siezures everyday. I spend everyday of my life watching over him and beating the seizures to the punch. when I see a seizure I have to make sure he is safe has his mouth piece in to protect his teeth because he grinds so bad in a siezure it causes damage. I take him from one doctor to another over and over again for the next experimental drug that might help him… When he had his brain surgery I was there the last moment I could be there and I was there as soon as he come out of surgery. Then I spent the entire time with him at the hospital I never left I even slept there.

Ok the day of and the day before the surgery this is what happen… First off he told me I could never compare my surgery to his that I would never go through what he went through with that. Then the day of the surgery we all got up went to the hospital and my surgery was pushed up it was suppose to be done at 10am but a little girl had to come in for a emergency surgery which was ok with me. However 11:30 roled around and my husband said he was hungry and wanted something to eat, but he was affraid if he left I would go in. I said go ahead have a sandwich and a cigarette. I had packed lunch it was in the car. At 2pm my son and my husband had not returned from the cigarette and the sandwich. So I asked to go home I had been 24 hours without anything to eat and my bowels were cleansed so I was completely empty. The truth was that this is why I left but I did not want the doctor to think my family was jerks or anything like that… Like I said most of the time he is a wonderful guy but I don’t think he wants me to forget he has problems. I need to have everything stop for me once in a while too…

I did talk to him and tell him how I feel but I am still very angery…
No I did not have the surgery I was scared i did not want to go through that alone. I told the doctor that I was leaving because I had waited to long and I was uncomfortable…

I am 28 and have suffered from it for 13years and have not found a dr that thinks i’m "old enuf" or "bad enuf" Would love to see them live a day in my shoes… So I was just wondering, what options are out there for treatment. I’ve used Imodium and Maalox etc… But don’t seem to last longer then an hr and arn’t always effective. I can’t bare to leave the house without knowing there will be a washroom at my convience at any given time. Any advice would be great! Thanks in advance

I realize that the majority of the weight loss people experience during a cleanse or detox comes from the dietary regimen that they follow during it. However, does the cleansing of the colon by itself or whatever is found in most cleanses do anything for weight loss.

A question my text book doesnt have the answer to… D: Help please

I am thinking of cleaning my liver, kidney, stomach, intestines from toxins. I am thinking of Colon Irrigation therapy. Has anyone tried that. Is it effective and how many treatments would I need in total. Are there any side effects. Do some recommend me a good place for colon irrigation therapy in Tyne and Wear, North East England, UK. Thanking all of you for your advices.

a friend of mine bought an herbal powder detox and i was wondering are these ingredients good for cleansing the colon/intestines? it’s to be taken over a 3 day period. my buddy says that the first he did #1 all night long, first time yellow and the rest was all clear. then after the next dose he did #2 all day/night. about 6 times all together. he said he had wet bowel movements and that his stomach didn’t hurt it just all came out nice and smooth.

with that said i’m wondering would these ingredients actually cleanse the colon or are they just producing bowel movements but not actually cleansing the colon. you know something like how a water pill makes you urinate?
oops i forgot to list the ingredients. here the are:

psyllim husk, seena powder, fennel see, peppermint, papaya, rose hips, buckthorn bark, barberry root, celery and acidophilus (i think that’s the spelling. part of the name got cut off my sheet) grape root.

it’s all in a brown powder.
i’m NOT trying to lose weight. if i did that i would disappear! i’m trying to cleanse my colon! that’s it!

I just want a little something that might help make her healthier. She also has heart disease and was borderline diabetic, so all healthy foods/fats please! Thanks guys.

to the bathroom? Are you such an addict you can’t break away long enough to cleanse your bowels?

I read a lot about the importance of cleansing the colon. How it can help weight loss, better living, etc. etc.
My question is, in taking a colon cleansing supplement, what will happen? When I go to the bathroom, will it hurt? Is it like diarrhea?
When should I take it/how many?

what is the condition or factor that makes the tapeworm live in the small intestine? why it cant live in the large intestine?

I take prescribed phentermine from the doctor. my question is .. is it dangerous to mix this diet pill with a colon cleanser? i don’t want to stop taking the diet pills but i would like to try a colon cleanser. a friend told me it really helps with your digestive system! and thats where i have my problems.

I’m not obese, and i do realize losing weight takes time. I’m not in to much of a hurry since i now weigh 150 im 5’6′. ive lost 15 lbs using this diet pill. but want more off.

Ok so i am trying to cleanse my bowels, colon, and hoping for some weight lose to, however i don’t have the exact ingredients for the master cleanse. I was wondering if this will still work.
Regular syrup with 2% maple syrup( the nutrition facts are similar to grade b maple syrup).
Lemon juice. Well its much easier to work with, and its says that it pure lemon.
Then caynne pepper.
I will filter the water at home
If I do this will the cleanse still work, or not? please help. And if you have any other suggestions. I actually started it already. First day.

I have SEVERE bloating. I need to cleanse so that this bloating stops. I have not lost weight in 3 months, even after eating healthy and exercising every day.

What works best?

I’m doing the cabbage soup detox now, but would a kit from GNC work better since my case is so severe? (I look 7 months pregnant, randomly throughout the day)
I actually saw my doctor who determined I have no medical problem. No celiac, no allergies, no thyroid problems, no weird levels, etc. 5 different doctors, and nothing. I exercise every day and can’t lose the bloat. A cleanse is pretty much the only thing left.

I am looking to clean my colon before I start my diet!! Not only for my diet but i have been experiencing symptoms of IBS!!! Do anyone know whats a good cleanser. How long should I do it because its my first time!!

Experimental Cancer Treatment?

I’m 22 years old, to some this may seem dumb, but I need to try everything. But you never know if someone out there knows of a good experimental treatment that has high counts of success.

My mom has been battling cancer off and on. It started in my freshmen year with stage 4-colon cancer. 7 years later it has spread into different organs but she has been able to concur the problem at times, and even went into remission. She has been in remission for almost a year, and about three months ago she found out the cancer had spread to her liver. After of having been on several different forms of chemotherapy, including being on the pump, the doctors had her try the one last form of chemo they could think of to battle the cancer. After 2 months the doctors said the treatment hadn’t helped her at all.

After consulting with several doctors they seem to feel that they have no treatments left to try on my mom to fight off the cancer and the only option was experimental drugs.

Has anyone heard of any experimental drugs having high success? If she doesn’t find one that does they’re not sure how much longer she could fight off the cancer.

Thank You

I know its not my appendix. It doesn’t hurt at all when i put pressure on my side…anywhere. Its only when i have gas or a BM. Its been going on for 4 days now, and its not as bad as it was in the beginning, just wondering what is is? Did i pull a muscle, or do i just need to eat more fiber? I have been drinking lots of water and taking it easy to be safe.

Heres a diagram showing where it is
