Loose diarrhea post colonoscopy damage - #10437
I am a 20-year-old patient experiencing chronic rectal leakage and burning sensation since a colonoscopy performed a few months ago. The leakage is watery or mucous-like, worsens with food or abdominal pressure, and causes severe discomfort. MRI abdomen showed congested mesenteric vessels, but no active inflammation or major pathology. Colonoscopy report did not reveal ulceration or colitis. I have already tried Loperamide, Sucralfate, dietary changes, and probiotics, but there has been no relief. Symptoms continue even without any supplements or triggers. No history of endocrine tumors, infection, or systemic illness. This seems to be a post-procedural secretory gut dysfunction, possibly due to mucosal irritation or neurogenic overactivity. The issue is disabling and affects my daily functioning. Request: I am requesting a trial of Octreotide under supervision to help reduce abnormal intestinal secretions. I am open to other healing agents like L-Glutamine, Sucralfate, or Clonidine, if appropriate. I am willing to follow strict monitoring and local follow-up care as advised. This is not stress-related — I am sincerely seeking a treatment-based solution for persistent gut leakage.
