This one is different though, this worry affects everything and feels much more serious than anything I can snap out of, like I have with my other quick health concerns like the marks on my chests. Blood in the stool is just much more alarming especially when what doctors have told you doesn't align with facts: blood from hemherroids is supposed to be bright red? Why was this blood not bright red? Sure I may have had hemorrhoids a few times when I was passing a hard stool and bled on to the paper, fresh blood, but this happened after a loose stool, although I was straining, but still it wasn't bright red
