So about 8 weeks go i was a bit bunged up so I took a Ducalax and didn't realise how strong it was for my stomach, I had full on sweat dripping off me and doubled over from cramps and diarrhoea. The next day I noticed blood when I wiped the first time and nothing after that. Left it a few weeks and made an appointment to see the nurse , she thinks that could just be related to the ducalax and maybe a anal fissure or tenesmus so I mentioned about the crampsand this green mucus I was passing with blood streaks I was getting and she prescribed like a stronger version of buscapan. We went on holiday and the for the 8 days I could not go bathroom properly and with me straining just saw blood on the first wipe of tissue. When we got back I left it a few weeks mucus kept coming out with blood everytime I passed a stool like it was coating the stool.
I've now had 3 stools samples and ive got the results back for the irritation test which was negative, when i saw the doctor she id an examination and said i had piles and couldnt feel anything else up there and when she pulled her finger out no blood and she pushed the piles back up. . Because I have health anxiety and think im dying with every new symptom I e been triaging the doctors everyday with new ache and pain. Thursday I was off work because ive not been eating properly and now developed a new pain in my right side which is also in my back, i rang 111 who told me to get assessed at the chemist and all she did was give me immodium but you can't take it if your already showing blood. I eventually got seen at out hours gp who assessed my stomach and said I needed an referral for a urgent colonoscopy but wasn't worried about the stomach pains.
Yesterday messaged my doctor again for a urgent referral and he said my FIT test came positive at 200 and to come back in at 6pm amd he'll check my stomach. He wasn't worried about the stomach pains or that i have back pain but told me the results for the FIT were positive 200 but its not showing on my nhs app and we are still waiting for the Immflamation results back but he has sent a request for a urgent cancer referral 2ww for a colonoscopy now the next problem I have is I am extremely needle phobic like to the point of fight or flight so can't have a blood test and im hoping for the gas and air for the colonoscopy but doctor said it will hurt and i'll need sedating. Im now extremely anxious over the whole thing and how i can be having a 2ww because I took a ducalax and it pretty much damaged my insides.
