Colitis Sigmoidoscop: 89 years old male on prilosec, zoloft & flomax (tamsulosin). Medicines have no relation to complaints. Having a clear odorless liquid discharge. Since there is no bleeding, needs a flexible sigmoidoscopy. I doubt colitis but ? Fistula needs to be ruled out along with other possibilities.
