Hi, I’m a 25 year old male. I have been having irregular bowel movements. I had an x ray and a ct scan showed a bunch of stool

Hey I have been having weird stool that is not normal for me. I had a ct scan and CBC., they said it all looked normal but a bunch of stool? How would they know between stool or a mass?

My stool has been a lot looser and flat.

I have been having a gurgling sound and a popping bubbly sensation in my left abdomen.

And a vague tenemus feeling

I’m really worried and I can’t get a colonoscopy because of COVID.

Hi, I hope all is well with you and nothing is serious. In my experience, the only way to really make sure is to get the colonoscopy.

Hi Notawhale ,Thanks for posting and I'm sorry for what you are going through. If you feel that something is off with your body, even after the tests they performed, then we recommend you keep trying to get answers through additional tests. Have they expressly told you that you are not able to get a colonoscopy?

We're seeing in some countries that people are experiencing delays and have no appointment set due to COVID, and other areas where there has been no (or minimal delay).

There are many reasons why you could be experiencing symptoms but a colonoscopy will be able to rule out colorectal cancer, and hopefully give some answers as to why you are having these symptoms.

Please keep us updated,

Nicole @ GCCA
