    Thank you for your enquiry.

    I am sorry to hear about the problems you are having with bowel spasms. This certainly sounds like something you should speak to your doctor about as it is not usual to be experiencing these symptoms.

    I am sorry that I cannot really offer much advice to you other than to see your Doctor for further investigation.

    If you'd like to send your questions through to Bowel Cancer Australia's Nurse Adviser we'd be very happy to get in contact with you to provide an individualised response and advice.
