Hi everybody.
I have not been here for some time as i thought my anxiety had gone, It had but now i have this new problem and its back and i am having sleepless nights.
About 10 years ago i was suffering a bout of constipation, I thought nothing of it until i got diarrhea, and then i started to bleed from my back passage.
It all came on in the middle of the night, I had stomach cramps and i was desperately in need to go to the loo but i couldn't, It felt like i had eaten something bad. In the end i managed to go, it turned into Diarrhea and i thought that would be the end of it, but i kept having to rush back to the loo to go more.
The thing is, It turned in to just passing watery blood, mixed with white mucousy stuff, and still had bad stomach cramps, but just passing blood on its own. This went on for a day, I was bedridden as i kept having to rush back to the loo, to pass just blood and white mucous. then it would just go away again.
I went to the doctor while i was having these episodes, she examined me, said i had a few piles and that she would send me to see a consultant just to be on the safe side, shes asked me what colour the blood was.... Now this is where i am not sure what kind it is dark or red, when i wiped, light blood on the tissue, but looking in the toilet bowl it looked dark and not mixed in just laying around my stools.
I went for a sigmoidoscopy, well they found nothing and said just a few piles.
Well throughout the years, I still get it, It comes and goes, but every time it comes, its the same way...... cant go, then Diarrhea, then just passing blood with white mucous that will last for one day, then go again and i will feel Okay again, last time tho, there seemed to be more blood.... So again i went back to the doctors, had my bloods done and they ALL came back normal.
I have just had a letter saying i need to go for an endoscopy, not sure what that is, but my husband said its a colonoscopy, and they're going to sedate me.
I AM TERRIFIED. I cant sleep and eat worrying myself sick about this and the results. can somebody help me to tell me what they think i have.... and whats going to happen in this procedure. XX
