Hi,
I have had a list of many symptoms, I will be due for a colonoscopy or suchlike sometime soon, the reason for which was that I noticed a fair bit of red blood on my stool. In-between, I've had various symptoms a day or two of yellow stools, green stools, I've had mucous and/or pus on my stools... some stools were two-toned, some where half soft half hard, various textures. Today after being very constipated, I managed to defecate, it was a hard lumpy stool, but the real unpleasantness was that it was covered in a thick layer of either pus of mucous, it was a whitish sticky substance with possible traces of blood. I have not really had any rectal pain, however I have a pain in my right side when I cough or sneeze, and I have a pain in my lower back and what feels like my lower spine, the Doctor puts these pains down to a simple sprain... I really do not think they are symptoms of a sprain, but 'hey' he's the Doctor.
From reading the above, what do you think?
I am being investigated for kidney trouble, initial tests seem clear. Finally, I have not been drinking as many fluids as I should have, yet recently I have been having differing urine colours, the latest which is very clear, I've been looking online and it says that's a sign of being well hydrated... while I don't think I'm dehydrated, I wouldn't say I was well hydrated either.
