well it's me again! i went to a G.I. and he tells me it is imperative that i get a colonoscopy. then tells me that e will do it as long as i have $1,000. (i have no insurance) i told him i that i do not have an extra thousand dollars right now (it's the holidays for pete's sake!) and he told me to come back when i did! i asked him if it would be safe for me to wait until next month when my insurance kicks in to get the colonoscopy. he just sat there and finaly said "i can't tell you that" well gee! thanks! i was so upset i wanted to scream! (i actually invisioned myself doing pretty rotten things to this man.) payment plans were not an option. i could have easily payed $300 every two weeks but no. so now i get to live in pain (which now has gotten quite excruciating) be contipated (can only go with use of an enema) have aweful mucous when i finally get b.m. out. (it is honestly disgusting it is rust orange and there is a ton of it) my back, stomache and ribs hurt like ****, i have aweful joint pain, headaches, i feel like throwing up everytime i eat and my stomache bloats every time i eat. my newest symptoms include black and maroon mixed into very dark stools, i am now in continuous, all day pain , insomnia, my body has started to itch like **** at night, (mostly scalp and legs), i am bruising like crazy (i look abused),my joints have seriously gotten worse. i don't know what to do guess i'll be waiting in pain for another fricken month. all i know is that the blood in the stools scares me....

anyone know what this could be? (please?) anyone?!
