Hi so I am trying to get myself ready to call my consultants secretary  tomorrow to chase up my yearly colonoscopy check up. I'm worried though I'm overly worrying. I had colon cancer in 2019 and had a successful resection.Last week i notice blood on my stools. Now I was also on my period. Although they are never heavy I've never noticed menstrual blood on my stools before. How likely is this to have been the case? Hqve any of you had this? I don't know if I'm just going to be wasting time and get my colonoscopy and it all be fine. I certainly don't want to take the opportunity from someone else. How quickly could a cancer regrow? My colonoscopy last year showed a benign polyp that had appeared with 20 months. Could q recurrence grow that quickly in a colon? I though it took years? So many questions sorry I'm trying to talk myself out of having to get in touch x
