Good morning 👍🏻 Im 30, mild asthma and suffer health anxiety really bad and everything with Cv19 is like my norm to me but it’s massive to me now. So I’ve had the following in the last week if anyone has heard of it or can help me with what this sounds like as I’m very worried 🙏🏻

Symptoms:

Throbbing & stabbing pain in left groin area

Constipated for few days (wiped bright red blood once after straining)

greasy light coloured bowel movements

Tiny trace of microscopic blood in urine test

No urine infection detected

Very tired

Not pregnant

Do I need to get an ultrasound done with a gastro consultant or does this sound like a gynaecology issue ?

Hope everyone is coping Ok x Thanks very much xx

I honestly am not qualified to say. I know that doctors are very busy, but health problems outside the virus still continue, and people need to be treated for them. So it is in order for you to phone the doctor.

Bright red blood after straining is generally normal. But if you are worried best to get it checked out.

I had a problem with bloating some months back and got quite worried. I thought it might be IBS and to cut a long story short I had a CT scan and it came back normal. The bloating has gone as well. I did have concerns about wasting hospital resources but they reassured me that I had done the right thing.

It doesn't sound like the Corona virus at all, but it would make sense for you to avoid other people if possible, with the asthma.

It must be very difficult for anyone who suffers from health anxiety, but Corona is actually a mild illness for the majority of people.

Take care of yourself!

Thanks hun I no the nhs are goin to be very busy indeed I have health insurance so I’m bookin an app with private hosp as I know nhs will be forever, now which isn’t not their fault at all. With ocd as u no u think the worst and I think I’m dying of a horrible illness. It’s strange but I’ve not been as worked up about cv 19 as with us all ocd’ers this is our normal everyday xxx 😘 thank for your kind words x stay safe x
