Hello
just looking some other experiences I went to my GP three years ago as I was having bleeding when going to the toilet. She examined me and said I had a fissure and possibly piles. As there is a family history of bowel
cancwr she referred me for a colonoscopy.
the bleeding continued on and off didn't get any worse and would go away for weeks then come back for a few weeks then go again. No changes in habits I would only go to the toilet every three days that is my normal my whole adult life (I am 36).
i eventually had my appointment in February but not for a colonoscopy I seen a consultant she examined me said she couldn't feel piles or see a fissure (at this stage I was bleeding) so she sent me away to do a qfit (hospital didn't have any so one was posted about one month later). Now because the bleeding hasn't got any worse and comes and goes I wasn't overly concerned.
anyway did the qfit forgot to ring for my results for two weeks and remembered this week (haven't bleed in over a month) GP said it was positive and because of family history he was red flagging me To hospital. I am so shocked I really was being very blasé about this all as it has been going on for three years with no other symptoms any similar experiences?
