Hi all,

since around the beginning of November, I've had strange stool, they have always been either flat, flat on one side or round but fairly thin. I had bloods taken which are clear, a calprotecin test which was clear (I did have one that was positive but since I was on NSAID's at the time I had to retake) and a FIT test which was positive. I now have a colonoscopy booked in on the 8th as a result of this. I'm fairly certain that I have internal hemmeroids which caused this result, because of itching and sometimes blood after wiping which is bright and looks fresh. My FIT was 40 which i heard is not extremely high. I also had a really cracked nose that bled a lot at the time which could also cause a high result so there's that.

So today, I passed a stool that was completely healthy looking, perfect shaped and really thick as a healthy one would be. The colour was also a medium brown so that looked healthy. My question is, if I had a tumour would by stool always be flat/grooved? I would suspect that it can't just disappear so my stool today may be a sign that I can stop worrying so much.

I'm a 22 year old male if that counts for anything.

Thanks everyone!
