Does absence of a bowel movement for a number of days occur after a colonoscopy.?

Prior to a colonoscopy, laxatives are given to completely empty the colon. So, after the procedure, does it sometimes happen that it takes a few days to have a bowel movement?

What did the nurse mean by enlarged colon?

I started having pain several months ago and went on with life as usual. I’m generally healthy, exercise and try to eat right. I finally went to the doctor with this pain and he ordered blood work and a CT scan. After the scan the nurse called and told me that my colon is enlarged and refer-ed me to someone else, whom I’ll see next week. I’m 33, married, three kids and freaking out! If it were cancer something would have shown up in my blood-work, right? What else could be wrong?
