Just a little update, the doctor decided as the hospital wasnt doing much to help me she said she would experiment a little and gave me 1 week course or cortisteriord prednisone or something,
After taking these for 5 days my stomach pain is stil there but not as often, but can still feel cramps. ive had no visable blood for 3 days and no mucus.
My weight has defo maintained if even gained some.

Any information you guys can give me would be great , thanks in advance

It is unlikely (but not impossible) that your symptoms indicate colon cancer.  Type in rectal bleeding to google/yahoo and click on one of the many sites that describe the causes etc of rectal bleeding.  The Medicinenet site is particularly informative.

I suggest that you request a full colonoscopy.
