I am a 27 year old female, and have had Ulcerative Colitis for around 14 years. It has been untreated all that time as well, as whatever drugs i have tried to take never agree with me. I am worried i have bowel cancer, because i have read so many times that there is an increased risk of it with colitis. I have had 1 sigmoidoscopy about 4 years ago which showed moderate colitis. I do not want a colonoscopy, i have recently had an ultrasound which didn’t show any lumps or bumps or thickening of the bowel wall.

What can i do to get this damn disease under control, without being pumped full of drugs?
Somebody please help me (

I had Infrared Coagulation to remove Hemorrhoid. The anesthesiologist give me a shot in the arm, then I fell asleep. I have this 3 times. Once for Colonoscopy, once for Infrared Coagulation, and once for follow up. Is this consider General general anesthesia? If it is,Is it too much for the removal of Hemorrhoid? Does it cause long term harm to the brain?
and they didnt put gas mask or anything, just one shot.
I was sleeping during the procedures.

This does get a bit graphic so, if you are sensitive to that then you’ll not wish to read this.

Is it normal to get hemorrhoids when you’ve recently had a colonoscopy? I had my scope last Friday, and yesterday I noticed a bit of a problem, and today it has become worse. There is definitely a hemorrhoid; it is not bleeding…yet. So I guess I have two questions in one: Is the hemorrhoid a result of the scope? and, What can I do to get rid of it because it hurts to clean myself.

im 24 year old and last week i have a colonoscopy . they find mild ileitis , and a Internal hemorrhoids.im still having a little blood in stool. im not sure is it from my hemorrhoids or the berries i’ve been eaten(black berries, raspberry, strawberry).im constipated , and have abdominal pain. month ago i had an endoscopy , they found a hatial hernia , and gastritis. my doctors ran blood test , urine test, xray , but they didnt find anything . what could it be?
