I wanted to post on this bc over the last couple of weeks I was glued to this forum worried about my girlfriend who is 27 and had been bleeding with mucus for the last 5 months, intermittently and then more consistently and heavier to the point where it was every day. Strangely she maintained a regular consistency and didn’t increase the visits to the loo. Also she had bloating and loud stomach gurgling She was recommended an urgent colonoscopy after a stool sample for occult blood. I was completely prepared for the worst and luckily she came back with procitis, the doctor was very reassuring and she’s responded q quickly to meds. The symptoms were very severe I’m amazed it was a mild case. Wish everyone the best. (Sorry if you’ve seen the same post in different threads, just wanted to post this experience to offer some reassurance)

Hi I was just reading your message. I have been feeling the same lots of mucus in stool and sometimes just yellow mucus with stomach crumps but no blood in stool. Thats making me very confused and worried if I have cancer or not. I had stool test done also fit test to detect if and is blood in stool. That was clear. When I touch inside my bowels on the right I feel there is a slightly  raise bump also the GP felt it but the gastrointestinal specialist said it's my uterus. That made me even more confused because I didn't think you can feel your uterus in the Bowles. (Sorry forgot to mention I have multiple of fibroids in the uterus).  My stomach Alway hurts also after I opened my Bowles I feel I still need to go back I'm not constipated.

Hi [@Jay7]‍  how have you got on ? I have very loose stool for around 7 months.  Mucus  and and blood becoming more often - noticed it once a month now more.  Bloated, sore left abdomen and gas.  I also run to the toilet in the morning. 

[@Olive94]‍ how have you got on? I also have same symptoms starting to feel very worried. 

[@afw123]‍ 

had a colonoscopy that revealed nothing other than some inflamed blood vessels in rectum, no haemorrhoids, polyps, tumours etc thankfully. My anxiety was through the roof for the month leading up to the colonoscopy and it was all a massive waste of time! 
 

Hope that helps

I wanted to message you because I was in this situation for 4 weeks of pure worry with not knowing what was wrong with me. 
me I'm 26 years older had had 2 positive stool tests for blood in stool one being a FIT test which they screen for bowl cancer (which freaked me out) but I didn't listen to anyone and only googled and read forums online.. trust me IT MAKES IT WORSE. I had rectal bleeding for around a month came on all of a sudden was pretty weird.. my stool was changing one minute I was constipated then I had loose stool then I had normal ish looking stool kinda narrow.. I had my colonoscopy today and I had mild colitis after thinking I had the big C!

Don't worry don't google!

Hi I have had diarreah blood and mucus in stool for four weeks. I was tested and they said in was gastrointeritis they did a stool test and said no bacteria but didn't check for parasites. I'm off my food and loosing weight, probably as I'm not eating. I find it difficult to drink water and my anxiousness is off the charts. I will be having a full body scan and a camera soon after that. Stools are yellow, but look slimey and stringy. I'm just scared of everything now, the test the findings everything. I lost my dad to covid and am worried about taking the test . I need advice and support please anyone 

[@disneyqueen]‍ hi - try not worry.  I have drastically changed my diet to a low fodmap diet and it has helped so so much! I was convinced I had something bad wrong with me.
