Thanks for the info jmmum.

I have googled it and have found a few things but haven't really had time to read through any of it. I think I will take some time tonight and have a look. I'm the sort of person who likes to know EVERYTHING which can't be a good thing at times!! I'm so glad that your brother is well now, a girl I know has it and she has been very ill. The Dr kept referring to bowel cancer but thinks that I am too young for that so he has ruled that out unless he finds otherwise when he is having a look around.

Do you know why he has to watch his diet? The girl I know has to watch her diet too but I just don't understand what it is you have to stay away from etc?! Sorry, I have a billion questions buzzing around my head at the moment!
