As I write I'm so scared. I'm 37 with two amazing young children.  I've always had IBS type symptoms for years. 

In the last year particularly  since the summer I've developed cramping more regular stools and had visible blood twice in about  6 months.  It eased for a month or two but since Christmas  I've been struggling with cramps again and even more regular stools and discomfort as well as bloating and gas. 

In September I did a FIT test, bloods and ultra sound which all came back fine and specialist said probably just persiatant  indegestion. 

Today I've done a positive FOB test at home.  

Specialist Haa been away all Christmas  and I'm so scared. I just keeping thinking I'm going to have cancer and die and my children will have no father. I know that sounds extreme but whatever is going on in my body is so abnormal  I can't explain it as anything else. 

I should say I'm going through a divorce since the summer so everyone keeps saying it's probably just stress  but I'm sure it isn't. 

I'm awaiting a private colonscopy app which I can confirm until Specialist is back next week.
