ANY SUGGESTIONS PLEASE HELP??

[SoSore]

For a while now I've had mucus and blood in my stools.. Sometimes severe stomach cramps. I am a 22 y.o. female. I have 2 children both normal vaginal deliveries. I've had 2 stomach surgeries and will have another 1 on the 23rd of December. One was a left inguinal hernia repair and an appendectomy for a ruptured appendix. I will have laparascopic surgery of my reproductive system to diagnose an unrelated issue. Anyway, what are the chances of colon cancer, Chron's Disease, Ulcerative Colitis??? None of that runs in my family. My father had polyps in his colon though. That's it. Im very nervous. I've done stool samples and studies and I am waiting on those results.

mucus and blood along with stomach cramps is a sign of ulcerative colitis or crohns just because it doesnt run in  your family it doesnt mean you cant get it i was diagnosed at age 21 with ulcerative colitis and no bowel problems runs in my family whatsoever also stool samples do not always show up anything especially if you are on any medication so dont think that if the stool samples come back clear its nothing you need to be persistant as this can get a lot worse.hope thats helped
