Stressed and worried

[katyfitz]

Hey. So I’ve still got this obsession of really studying my stools once I’ve been to the toilet. I turn the torch on on my phone to see if the colour that my poo is turning the water is anything but red. Can stools change the colour of he toilet bowl when you poo? I’m convinced I’ve got bowel cancer but I need to maybe just flush when I finish the toilet. Can anyone help or talk to me

I feel like the more you obsess, the more you are convinced you will see / feel something related to a disease. Perhaps lay off for a while and see how it goes and if you still feel uncomfortable, see a doctor

Hi,

I understand how this could become an obsession. A quick glance is all you need (this is normal) then flush it :)

You would definitely see blood if there was any.
