Hi all
as title says I need a slap ! As I’m truly sick of the way my brain works ( or doesn’t)
I had some issues with rectal bleeding starting last year most likely caused by a week of constipation after surgery for an unrelated issue . Gp diagnosed piles , did the cream it got better. But oh no couldn’t just leave it could I ?
I’ve wasted months gazing at my poo to see if there’s any blood which if constipated or straining there sometimes is . Cue the health anxiety. Then I’ve got the runs ( anxiety) etc .
back to gp who’s not worried ( I should say I’m 56 female ) but I don’t as cos my age and dr Google ( I KNOW ) but I do FIT test yay it’s negative so I’m relieved for a while but yes saw bit of blood again ( prob as diet not great by now as dread pooping; having palpitations on the loo in case something awful comes out of me )
So backing to stressing and go see a different gp - she refers me on 2 week wait - I have colonoscopy about 9 weeks ago EVERYTHING NORMAL. No nothing. ( note no mention of piles ) Stopped looking down toilet for weeks.
Been bunged up had to strain had a look yes small bit bloody mucus on poo . Been worrying all day that colonoscopy missed something!! Hence title of thread .
I’ve been and got anusol stuff . Can piles be not visible on colonoscopy? ? Help!
Starting therapy for ha hopefully next week. Thanks for reading!!
