Is the sigmoid colon on the left side, because that was where all the pressure hurt me enough to double me over, and finally the bowels moved after about 2 hours. My stomach and lower addomen are still VERY tender, do you know what that means, I stopped the drs because my gyn feels like I should go on with the surery, and even the general surgeon said there is NO possible way they can in through the scope!
