I received a routine colonoscopy three days ago because I turned 50 and my father was diagnosed with
colon cancer when he was 52, so wanting to do the right thing for my
health I had the colonoscopy. I have been feeling miserable ever since because I have not had a bowel movement. I asked my doctor about it and he said that it is normal and that I should "just wait." This is an unacceptable answer, which I will discuss with him during my follow up next week.
