Ibs?

Hi 

I was diagnosed with ibs when i was around 16 im now 28 and really struggling.

My appendix ruptured in 2013 and the pains been unbareable on and off since.blood and mucus in my stools started a year or so ago the pain is all my right side and sometimes below my ribs . After numerous visits to a& e and the doctors My gp eventually took 1st ever stool sample in april something has come back high in it been refered for urgent investigations. Has anyone had anything similar?

Really anxious about a possible colonoscopy and what results to expect.

  • Hi, hope you are okay. I have literally just posted a similar post. I have blood on my stool and have had mucus in my stool since December. My doctor's don't seem to want to help and I'm really scared. The first blood in my stool was on Thursday but I have been pestering them about the mucus since December. I'm glad you are booked in to have a colonoscopy, and fingers crossed for you xx

    Keep pestering until they do something.do you lose blood an mucus with every bowel movent?i think they got fed up with me so started doing tests. Im just waiting for a phone call to say date and time but said will be done within next couple of weeks.

    Fingers crossed you get some answers soon xx
