I Had A Flexi Sigmoidoscopy! My Ulcerative Colitis Journey - IBD

Hi Everyone my name is Hannah, welcome back to my channel! Today I am having a Flexi sigmoidoscopy camera investigation and biopsies taken. This will be to see what type of inflammation I currently have. Hopefully I get my next appointment soon to discuss the results. More info on Chron's & Colitis: https://www.crohnsandcolitis.org.uk From the NHS website: "Flexible sigmoidoscopy A flexible sigmoidoscopy is an examination of your back passage and some of your large bowel using a device called a sigmoidoscope. A sigmoidoscope is a long, thin, flexible tube attached to a very small camera and light. It's inserted into your bottom and up into your bowel. The camera relays images to a monitor and can also be used to take biopsies, where a small tissue sample is removed for further analysis. It's better if your lower bowel is empty when you have a sigmoidoscopy so you may be asked to use an enema (a simple procedure to flush your bowels) at home beforehand. It should be used at least 2 hours before you leave home for your appointment. A sigmoidoscopy can feel uncomfortable, but it only takes a few minutes and most people can go home straight after the examination. ⭐️ Thank you all so much for watching.
