Hi everyone,
I'm very concerned about my chronic constipation. I only can go once a week and it's always a lumpy hard log (sorry to be graphic). I'm never ever in any stomach pain which is odd and I never get bloated to be honest, maybe a little every now and then. I've had issues my entire life. I just realized that I basically caused this myself. I used to hold it in for days bc I didn't want to use public restrooms or even go at friends houses. Only at home. I think the problem now is that I have some sort of nerve damage where my body doesn't give me a signal anymore. Maybe megacolon and/or megarectum? I'm 5 ft female I weigh 105 pounds and 20 years old. My stomach is always as flat as a board I don't get it. So scared about this. I've been non stop obsessed and searching online about the effects of chronic constipation and it said it can lead to ulcers in the colon from hard stools and it can perforate? I'm terrified. I've been straining lately bc I cannot relax and I've seen small trickles of bright red blood in my bowel movement all of the sudden and I'm scared I have an ulcer in my colon sad((( non stop panic attacks and I'm convinced I'm dying. I did have soreness in the rectal area after for 2 days. I also read chronic constipation is due to a blockage of stool in the colon? So basically I have a blockage of hard stools in my large intestine and need to be cleaned out? Omg. I had marbles for 2 days and the I had a soft stool last night from taking Magnesium citrate but apparently soft stools can go around hard ones. This is torture. I suffer from severe anxiety and haven't been eating much the past few months. I'm going to make my first appointment with my GI doctor. Also, I've had various blood tests in the last month and everything came back normal. Should I try some sort of colon cleanse to get completely cleaned out and start over? Not sure if I can do this at home have this done somewhere... any advice please? Anyone have a similar experience? Thank you
