Hi
I feel so embarrassed posting this but need I need some reassurance. Years ago I was told by a doctor that I had IBS due to ny need to go to the bathroom so quickly after a meal.
I have always been able to pass stool easily and have never had what would be recognised as a typical 'Solid stool'. My usual routine has always been to go not long after meals and can usually pass stool 3+ times a day.
However over the past few weeks, I have noticed that i have not been going after meals like I usually would, but having said this have also not felt the need too. I also have noticed kn occasion what looks like clear slime when I wipe.
Likewise, although I have not been going to the loo after meals, I am still going regularly, maybe 2-3+ times a day both large and small amounts.
I have health anxiety and have convinced myself that this change is due to bowel or colon cancer.
