If anybody here has had this done please tell me if you've experienced severe pain afterwards.  I had severe pain in one spot for a day (unable to stand up and walk pain) and uncomfortable still 2 days later.  And yes, I did drink my million glasses of water so the cement, I mean barium, won't solidify in my bowels :-) .  Just trying to figure this whole thing out.

Ohhh chica, I've had an SBFT but I didn't have any pain afterwards...although I've heard of this happening. You're right, it IS like cement, that stuff. If you are still in that much pain you need to call the testing center or your GI. Have you been having BMs at least?

Thanks Sarita. Yeah, I went to the bathroom alot the same day. It's the localized pain I'm worried about and was just wondering if anybody else had that. I'm sooooo frustrated!

I took Gas-X and tons of Tylenol.  Anybody know if adhesions could cause this pain?

My understanding of adhesions is they develop over time like scar tissue.
