What Causes Stomach Pain With Normal Colonoscopy?

my wife has been taken jarro-dophilus for seniors for a couple of months now. she recently had a colonoscopy that showed everything was clear. she has been having stomach pain off and on for about the same amount of time as the dophilus. Is it possible that this is causing the sharp pains she continues to experience?

Yes probiotics can cause discomfort so stop them and see if it is related. If continued problems your wife could try to increase her fiber with metamucil. Then if continued problems reconsult with your doctor
