I'm having another done next week. I think it's from the medication. What should I do? Should I tell the doctor and nurse and what can they do about it?

Yes, tell the nurse or the doctor and they will issue you some pads, as they call them in the UK (they don't like to call them disposable nappies!), which the District Nurse will replace if and when necessary - our District Nurses are a marvel, and Hospital, Surgery & District Nurses all work hand in hand to help. I know all that because I too had a colonoscopy which picked up the fact that I had Cancer. After that it was like a large industrial operation , flowing so smoothly and without hitches - operation, recovery, Chemo, constant checks by hospital, surgery & District Nurses - I really do have to salute them all for their expertise - it really makes you appreciate the NHS to be at the receiving end of so much expert practice.
