My friend received a diagnosis report and he needed me to help him understand it, but I didn't understand it either. I was wondering if you may help me out. The report said:
The bowel gas pattern is non obstructive. There is a large amount of stool throughout the colon suggesting constipation. No definite urolithiasis is identified.

Gas in your bowels is not blocking anything.
Your colon is full of poo because you are constipated.
You probably do not have stones in your urinary system.
To prevent constipation, eat a big bowel of raisin brain or shredded wheat everyday, and drink lots of water everyday.

Evidently your friend has been having problems with the colon. What this says is that the person is constipated. "bowel gas pattern" evidently refers to the type and amount of gas in the colon.
The phrase "urolithiasis" is refers to "The process of forming stones in the kidney, bladder, and/or urethra (urinary tract). Kidney stones are a common cause of blood in the urine and pain in the abdomen, flank, or groin. Kidney stones occur in 1 in 20 people at some time in their life" (medterms.com).
Simply buying a laxative is probably NOT going to fix your friend's problem. Constipation is usually a side effect of eating problems. It would be wise for your friend to consult with their doctor about what types of food they should be eating, and how their diet may need to be altered.
