I felt wet and went to the bathroom & I was bleeding from my rectum just like one does when on your period. I had a complete hysterectomy in 1993 so no reason to bleed. I'm still bleeding. I haven't had blood in my stool nor when I wipe. I have had a constant pain in the lower left side of my stomach for about 2 weeks. I am scared and don't know what to do. I am 45 yrs old
Thank you guys VERY much for your replies! I really appreciate them and they were really helpful. You know, I might go to the doctor and like you guys said, just suck it up and do it. Oh well, what's the worse part....not eating! lol, and if I get sick, I'll be off from work that day anyway. The problem is, I am currently trying to conceive, and if for some freak reason I get pregnant soon (I am saying that becuase I haven't been succesful in months...) then that's another issue. Anyway, thank you for the advise and God bless you all!!! =)
Sorry that you are having problems. I'm wondering how long ago was your previous colonoscopy? They are improving the procedures continuously. I myself have unfortunately gone through three episodes of either suspected colon cancer or where they actually found cancerous polpys. (It runs in the family.) Given that they have previously found polys, you should suck it up and get another one. BUT, tell the doctor and the nurses your previous experience (i.e. communicate with them.)
My recent episode (colonoscopy) was Friday (10/20). The nurses told me they would be administering the anesthia and to start counting backwards from 100 to 1. I never made 100! I actually did have trouble waking up in recovery, but I never felt a thing.
Best of luck Vsentz!
eat 100% bran in the morning or take SENOKOT which is OTC .
Avoid oily greasy food.
Hi,you might want to ask your dr about prescription laxative if your constipation is chronic (glycolax) or zelnorm.I also have similar problems.Dr suspects I have colitis but I also have constipation,I thought colitis was severe bloody diarrhea? I tend to alternate,not sure if zelnorm is suitable for colitis.
Maybe suppositories are causing rectal bleeding,I found when I used those or enema's I would bleed for days after, even to go urinate! I'm up for another colonoscopy ,last one in April was a nightmare..I was awake whole time and felt everything..ecck it was a nightmare.
