Hey guys, Its been nearly a year with this fixation about bowel or rectal c wordÂ… it started when i felt a twinge in my anus, instantly my mind went to rectal c word and i became hyperfixated, after this i started developing all the symptoms for it, the pain worsened, i had abdominal pain, pain on my left side (which ive had for years anytime my anxiety flares) mucus on stools, diarrhea and pressure feelingÂ…then one day, i saw a tinge of red blood on my stool, it wasnt dark, but i panicked really hard, went to so many doctors, had bloodwork and ct scan, both of which were perfectly normal, no anemia nothing, but it took a long time to feel somewhat normal again, i had pain that would come and go, some days better than others, it wasnt until the last few weeks that the pain stopped, my rectal pain finally went away and its just a little twinge here and there after a bm, my abdominal pain its much better nowÂ… also my doctor did a rectal digital exam, like finger up the bum, and said significant internal hemorrhoids, for reference, also did the palpation on abdominal bowel area and said it felt completely normal aside from the left side where i felt pain which he said was full of gas due to spastic colon due to ibsÂ…however i developed a huge fear of looking at stool, i cant, i avoid it at all costs, but today i caught a little glimpse and saw what looked like some bright red bleeding againÂ… iÂ’m only 28, i donÂ’t eat badly, iÂ’m so scared, all the fear came back full force again and iÂ’m now at the same dark hole i was a few months agoÂ…possibly the worst time of my life, please help me
