I am the one who wrote about Stachybotrys in my building. Two weeks ago I had a sigmoidoscopy that the Doctor could not complete. He hit a spot that gave me severe pelvic pain. When he pulled back - it went away. He pushed again and the pain was back. Again he pulled back and it went away. He did it a 3rd time with the same results. On the 4th try he pushed it further. It hurt so much he had to stop. He told me he could not complete the test because of my pain. First he said I have a really really spastic bowel, then he said I had a twist. I am not a Doctor but I was facing the screen and there was not a twist in my bowel. I made an appointment to see him last week. In his office he said I have a pocket!!!! I asked if there could be something under the bowel, around the bowel? He gave me some medication. It's no help - now what? I see you have used part of my story on your web site. You know part of my story. Can you help me? Laurie
