What were your symptoms when you were diagnosed with IBD? Did you have one or more symptoms? What tests did the doctors run? How long did the diagnosis take?
Take care,

@LizziB I had stomach cramps and irritability of bowel. They sent me for a scan, and a colonoscopy and diagnosed immediately.

Is it possible to have IBD but only suffer from constipation, fatigue and very severe pain in lower left abdomen? Have received results of stool sample confirming inflammation and now waiting for emergency referral as taking coedine daily for pain (which isn't ideal as making constipation worse). Almost hoping for a diagnosis of IBD so that I can start treatment but looking at symptoms online I feel like mine don't match😫 just wondered if anyone else who has been diagnosed had the same.
