Blood mixed poo when wiped

[helenhoo]

I hand unprotected anal (cringe) with one guy but it wasn't consensual - we were having sex and then he put himself elsewhere. This was 8 years ago. Surely would've shown at last smear if he was responsible for the HPV? Do I have it for it life? Am I likely to get a form of oral anal or vaginal cancer because of this? I feel dirty. I had a promiscuous stage (at the 8 year ago mark) but sure most were protected.

helen this is total rubbish look on your previous threads

Agreed. A lot of ignorance re anal cancer here too. A "soft" lump which moves about during BMs etc is NOT how anal cancer presents.

Go back to your CBT methods, Helen

I think you need to give your specialist all this information (and the info about the hemorrhoids) and have a discussion with him/her about it, then you can get clear about what's happening (or not happening).

I've been signed back to my GP now and have a check up smear for Cervical changes in 6 months. No mention anywhere of checking for anal or oral cancer changes.

You appear to be very worried about anal or oral cancer so it makes sense to be proactive and mention your fears about them to your Dr.

Helen sweetness, you don't have anal or throat cancer. I'm sure you've read but around 80% of the population that are sexually active have HPV. If by having HPV you were so much more at risk of other cancers they would screen for them too. The cervix is prone to precancerous changes because of the transformation zone - where the glandular and squamous cells meet. This isn't the case everywhere else.

I know that having this smear and the results have spiralled you. It's such a scary time honestly, but you have had clear margins! This means that all that remains in your cervix now is healthy tissue. That's great. Xxx

I've noticed when I wipe sometimes I can see a few black specks. I decided to monitor my poop and it's regular samentime morning and sometimes in an evening. Soft sausage shape. It was *very* dark brown yesterday. Today I had a look in more detail (embarrassing) and can see some tiny black specks inside the poop - not many but there.

Helen, take a deep breath for a moment. It's almost certainly just something you ate.

You're on a serious downward spiral right now, and you need to deal with the anxiety before it gets any further out of control.

[helenhoo]

It's been a few days worth though.


And I know I am. I had my first CBT session last week.

Black specks aren't even an issue, though.

Really glad you're getting help, and I hope this tough time passes for you soon.
