I am 20/F in good health, no family history of colorectal cancer. Tonight, a few hours after passing an extremely large stool, I wiped away some bloody mucus. I never (never ever) have diarrhea or constipation and rarely have an upset stomach. Also, around my belly button, the right side of my stomach is firmer than the left side and it hurts a little when I press on it. My diet is healthy (fruit, vegetables, legumes) with the exception that I eat a lot of refined sugar. I smoke 10 to 15 cigarettes a day. Three weeks ago, I induced an abortion using pennyroyal tea and large doses of vitamin C. Before the abortion passed, I also experienced very light rectal bleeding for a few days, but it stopped afterwards. Until tonight. I have been extremely fatigued for the past three weeks as well. I wake up from 12 hours of sleep feeling like I got two. There are probably lots of things I should go see a doctor about, but I just want to know if I should get a colon screening of some kind or if I just need to stop eating sugar, get some iron in my diet and stop smoking.
