I have got so depressed and incredibly anxious over this. :(
Last month I had waves of stomach pain, diarrhea which turned bloody for a few days then returned to normal colour, loss of appetite and nausea. The cramps went fairly quickly but the diarrhoea lasted for almost 3 weeks. A stool sample was taken which came back clear which was very weird and unsettling. I then recovered for 3 weeks but then had a bout of weird constipation where I felt the need to keep going to the toilet and was just passing small pellet like poo up to nine times. This happened twice last week and I haven't had it since. Now, I worry because my bum feels quite sore inside and it also feels like a bubble is trapped up there. I am terrified there is a mass or that it is Chrones or ulcerative colitis. I have no other symptoms except a slightly sore bottom and a bubble feeling. No pain at all.
I have missed so much work due to the illness I originally had and can't miss anymore time. I spend all my freetime googling symptoms and end up having a panic attack :(
I really am at my wits end.
Please help.
