rectal bleeding, mucus, stomach pain/discomfort

[TheAnon]

Hi I am a 24 going on 25 year old male. I recently quit smoking as well. I smoked almost a pack a day. Two years ago I started having a stomach issue. At that point my symptoms were pain/discomfort in the stomach with mucus in stool and what felt like constipation. I had an endoscopy/colonoscopy done. The endoscopy revealed an ulcer which had an h.pylori infection. I was given prevacid to treat it. The symptoms never went away. I was given another endoscopy 3-4 months later to confirm the ulcer was gone as was h.pylori. The endoscopy came back clean. Since then I still had pain/discomfort, feeling of being full all the time but it was bearable. Recently, after I quit smoking it became much worse.   I started having blood come out when I went occasionally and I commonly see mucus or clear liquid instead of stool when I go. I had an endoscopy done which revealed moderate gastritis, but was told that it wouldnt cause such pain/ discomfort, constipation. Afterwards I had a CT of the abdomen and a colonoscopy, both came back clean. Now I also have a needle like feeling right below the stomach as well. Before I quit smoking I also notice when I smoked it made it easier to go to the bathroom right after. The pain/discomfort/feeling of always being full and having to always go is too much now. I don't know what else to do. The doctor doesn't know. I can't live like this, can somebody help?

Hey buddy, yes, I had a few symptoms before I quit.  Acid reflux and occasionally constipation.  Now I have more constip., but I take the suppository like I said and it clears up right away.  Did you try them yet?  It's ok, keep in touch.  Keep your in-box on here.
I will let you more info there.
Talk to you soon,
Matt

Hey, I just saw the response so sorry for replying late, the issue has become worse since my last post. Did you have a similar issue with the stomach before quiting smoking as well? What were your symptoms before and after you quit?

Hey buddy, I quit smoking and had the same problem as you.  You will be ok after you become regular again.  It take the body a while to adjust.  Keep eating healthy, that helps.
I know this sounds gross, but try a Fleet glycerin suppository.   It works in about 15 min.
I use them now here, they are kinda like the cig was to help you go.
Drop me a line here if you want.  I'll send you my contact info in a Note here.

Talk to you soon,
