Hi ,
I've never posted on any forum but having used this site for many years I'm hoping I can get some help this time. I'm currently have a bad time.
I'm 50 year old male and have suffered with extreme health anxiety for many many years on and off.
My anxiety is cancer , constantly worried about it and checking my body in particularly my stools.
Friday I flipped out as when I checked my stool on tissue a very small bit of mucus came off which had some bright red / pink blood in. I'm talking a few millimetres.
I do have piles and for a week or so I've had very dry hard poo & more mucus.
Does this sound like a hemorrhoid problem ?
The mucus I've seen on and off for many years , it's been yellow, white , brown, orange or slightly red ( though it's not red when on tissue). Mucus in itself I'm ok with now as I have had IBS for 25 plus years.
I'm getting therapy but due to covid they're closed and I'm on citalopram.
I'm absolutely sick of this evil thing it's so damn destructive.
Any help appreciated
Thanks
