Good day , I’m new and concerned about bleeding during a poo, combined with right side lower back pain, 

last year I had many tests for this condition including two failed examinations, failure due to the pre exam bowel evacuation salts not completely cleaning  properly. No cancer found but advised to continue on cancer pathway.

  • Welcome to Cancer Chat Jayarts, although I'm sorry to hear about your symptoms.

    I know this must be worrying but I hope it helps to know that a lot of our members have been in this position too, so you are not alone Jayarts, and hopefully you will receive some support and advice from the community soon.

    We also have a team of cancer nurses you can talk to on 0808 800 4040. Their helpline is open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m and they will do all that they can to help.

    In the meantime, do make your GP aware of these latest developments (if you haven't done so already) so the investigations can continue.

    Our thoughts are with you Jayarts and we'll have our fingers crossed everything will be o.k.

    Kind regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
