Hello
First time poster - long time lurker. Last week i thought i had a brain tumor, the week before that I thought my daughter had leukemia, today i think i have symptoms of b cancer. Please don't let my prior anxieties effect what may be the symptoms..you know sometimes admitting you have had prior anxieties can take away the seriousness of the problem. Have i got health anxiety or is something really wrong?!?!?
I have loose bowel movements, for a while - (three months?) its unusual to have a normal bowel movement. The other day i passed a large stool (could be the tramadol - it was left over from husbands absess - so i take one if i have bad period pain.) I have had stinging in my bum which i know is piles. I went to the doctor look last year and she drained the pile - wow - so much information!) I didn't let on that i thought it was anything else and therefore she didn't check.) My poo is normal color. Loose but ok in size = not ribbon like. I haven't lost any weight. I had a blood test last year and it was ok.. and yet i feel like i never quite finish a bowel movement. I know this could be piles but I am freaking out here. I met my biological father last year and he said that his brother (my uncle) and his sister had cancer - he didn't know what! His brother is all mended but his sister not so. Oh god. Going to the doctor fills me with fear. If i mention loose stools and lack of emptying i *know* they will send me for colonscopy and that fills me with a deep and black chasm of fear. SO so scared. I am 38.
