Well i got the "official" results a few minutes ago and they said it was perfectly normal! So with the 3/4 of a colonoscopy done and the end shown by way of barium I guess i hav eto take their word that there is nothing in there! ;) I am so releived and feel like a huge burden has been lifted. He did recommend i get checked every 3 years. And by the way, if i NEVER have to get a another barium enema done it will be fine by me! it was horrible! God bless you all and thanks for your support!

    That is good news, Danielle. Here's to hoping I never have to have the barium test (pity the poor xray techs like my sister, who get to "clean up" after folks who can't make it all the way through the x-ray or to the bathroom afterwards. Yccch). Glad it is over for you!

    bet you're glad that's over - the barium enema was the worst test I had - I don't have a bowel anymore, so I guess they won't be doing that again!

    glad everything is ok - good luck
