Really scared about my synptons

[JackGunner]

I am no longer able to pass bowel movements. When I do pass bowel it is pencil stool, diarrhea, gassy floating stool.

My stool test showed blood in my stool. Check out the picture.

I get everything checked Friday July 8, 2022.

My OCC1 blood stool test has revealed I have abnormal. It says blood proteins for colon C. I hate to say the word. So I use C.

What is OCC1 positive mean in picture ?

No doctor has a idea.

Hi JackGunner,

Thank you for posting in Colon Cancer Connected. Hate to see you are getting this news, but proud you are taking positive action to get some answers about what's going on.

You had a OCC-positive from your FIT test on a stool sample. That could mean a lot of things. Was this a statement from your doctor "blood proteins for colon C?" It has been shown as a sign of possible "C" and then again it may not be that. I'm glad you are getting everything checked out July 8 and you will have much better answers. It's great to see your doctor and you are doing this.

The main thing is focus on getting the best answers of what's going on and addressing whatever it may be. You are on that path. I assume July 8 is a colonoscopy for you?

We do wish you get the very best in getting the answers you are looking for on July 8. Please keep us informed as it can help other people in this group.

Thank You,
