gas and bloating

It almost sounds as though you had a reaction to the contrast - which is not all that uncommon. Most treatments also attack rapidly-dividing cells, which your small and large intestines are composed of. Some experience major changes in bowel function, so it would be prudent to place a call into doctor or nurse for some guidance in your particular case.

As to diet, consider eating the healthiest diet that will stay down. At some point along my journey, I had to resort to milkshakes, as that was the only thing palatable and which would stay down. Not a recommended steady diet, but we live from day to day when in treatment.

In 2012 following a colonoscopy, NHL was diagnosed.  Found in a polyp.  Staged at 1(E).  We have been watching and waiting for 7 yrs.  No symptons, no abnormal labs, clean colonoscopies... until now.  Just recieved the pathology back from Feb. 2019 colonoscopy and it showed CLL.  In researching I see that these two conditions seem similar.  CT's will be done this week and we will see his hemotologist on Mar. 15th.  I am not freaking out like I did in 2012 since there has been little change in my lifestyle.  Trying hard to remain calm this time.  Has anyone else had an experience similar to this.  Blessings.
