I know people probably think I am being stupid, as I was going on about breast cancer last week, but I've got myself really worried again.
For the last few days, maybe about a week, I've had a mixture of diarrhoea/constipation. Today I noticed that in my stool there were lots of little bits, like white and dark bits, which on closer inspection seemed to look like seeds - yesterday I had a sandwich of wholegrain bread that contained seeds - so could it be these, because this is what it looks like?
Also, there are some small bright red bits aswell, so I am really worried, because I know that blood in stools is a serious sign, but last night I had a pasta with tomato sauce for my dinner, and I have also had about 3 cereal bars with dried strawberries in them between last night and this morning, so I was thinking maybe it could be that.
I have also made myself even more scared because I came across a video of a 17 year old girl who had bowel cancer, which is the age I am now, although I know that this is very, very rare.
What do you think?
