Advice needed!

I am unsure of what might happen, but I’ve had bouts of rectal bleeding, (I don’t have haemorrhoids) it filled the toilet with redness and was bleeding for over 15 minutes. Pain in abdomen, mucus in stool, nausea, constipation normally I don’t go for two weeks at a time and have to use laxatives, today alone I’ve been 11 times for a bowel movement. When I go it doesn’t feel like I’ve finished, and I have to strain ALOT! I have bladder issues too now, and spinal pain. This list is not everything, but id be here forever! My blood tests have come back normal or satisfactory, I am so tired and everyday is getting harder! Let’s not forget I’m only 20!

Does anyone else suffer with these? And could someone help put my mind at ease?

Go to your GP. Yo might need a colonoscopy which isn’t pleasant but manageable. Don’t let your GP fob you off because of your age.

I also have lumps in my breasts, but because I’m young they’re working slowly. I am so exhausted everyday and feel like I’m being ignored!

I agree with tippetytapper

Go to you GP as soon as possible. Those symptoms shouldn't be ignored
