Advice?

Tmi and I’m sorry

I am 28! I am seeing my primary next month for my yearly check up. During pregnancy I had hemorrhoids which were horrible. When I popped there was blood IN the stool. I explained to my obgyn and he told me to stop my baby aspirin (81 mg) that was 36 weeks. I did. And told me to follow up with my NP and go from there.

I am still experiencing this issue. Not often but I just had it… pooping did NOT hurt right now. I’m sick to my stomach reading google.

Can someone give me their best advice?

Hi Eleanorsmama513,

Thank you for posting in Colon Cancer Connected. I'm sorry that these symptoms are still with you. Congratulations and we hope you and the baby are doing well.

How long has it been since you stopped the baby aspirin? And this has been a issue occurring not often. I would definitely stop reading google as there can be many reasons for what you are experiencing and it doesn't sound sinister. Google can lead you off in many directions. You need info about you and your specific situation.

You are going to cover this situation during your annual exam next month. Exactly what you need to do. If possible, perhaps see if you can move up your appointment and get answers that pertain to your situation.

We do wish you the best during your check up and hope you get good answers from your visit and move towards a solution.

Thank You,
