Hello all,
I’ve been having blood in my poo for a few weeks now, bloating for months, no weigh loss, new pain in my back where my kidney is, changes in poo habits (really painful when I’m going in my stomach) and rarely going. Really tired all the time and bloods have come back showing anemic (been prescribed folic and iron tablets).
Saw the doctor, had a FIT test, doctor text me yesterday to say she would like me to make an appointment within 1 week, obviously my anxiety has gone through the roof. Called today and they have given me an appointment next Friday, they asked if I wanted face to face or telephone call. I asked for telephone call as I may be working.
Having to wait that long is giving me anxiety. My question is, if my doctor wants to see me within a week, does this mean it’s serious and what’s the next steps? Would she call to say she has made a referral to see someone else?.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you ️
