You don't state your age - the more serious causes tend to occur at the age of 40+ .
My suggestion is that you ask your doctor "what is going through your mind in deciding that I need a colonoscopy. What is the worst and what are the other options?" A colonoscopy is a very comprehensive test and will uncover everything.
Good luck

Maybe, prior to your colonoscopy and the discussion with your specialist, it may be informative to type in "rectal bleeding" to google or yahoo so that you can get an idea of possible underlying causes.
All the best
