Hiatus Hernia and Positive Fit Test
Hello, I’ve been having reflux issues since the summer and had an endoscopy where they found a hiatus hernia. However as my reflux symptoms haven’t improved upper stomach / chest and stomach discomfort they did a FIT test which came back positive (24) for hidden blood. Waiting for a colonoscopy. My poo

Worried lump under belly button. Not visible.
Hi I have been having health problems for a few months now and have kept my doctors informed throughout but they just think I have very bad anxiety as it’s one thing after another. I’ve tried to explain they are real issues that can be seen and felt. I started having thinner stools in September. One

Terrified I have rectal/colon cancer
Hi Everyone, For the past 10 days I’ve had a lot of symptoms that have me terrified I have cancer. I’ve been crying a lot. Sorry for the lengthy message. It started with insane amounts of mucus/pus coming out of my rectum. This also kept making me feel I had to poop, but it was just mucus throughout

Acid Reflux
My trouble started just after Christmas, keep feeling sick all the time, doc thought it was acid reflux possibly caused by my hiatus hernia, Prescribed loads of PPIs which made things worse, in the end used Gaviscon mint which made it a bit better, then I got mucus with my stool, gradually got worse

PA and hiatal hernia
I was diagnosed with PA on my first antibody test 3 years ago. It was good because I was getting ruled out for everything from MS to a brain tumor. I self inject b-12. I was overdue for a colonoscopy and endoscopy was advised since I would already be prepped. She did see a hiatal hernia which I was pretty

Endoscopy after finding out about Low b12
Hi, just wondering do you guys have any experience with this? I have an under active thyroid and during the recent review I stated that I was also having mouth sores. Anyway, after the blood test, I was told I had low b12. So, I was sent for another blood test and stool sample and have now been told

Colonoscopy
Just back from docs, have had a lot of mucus, so after internal anus check and found blood have been referred for two week colonoscopy. No diarrhoea, stools always solid, wondered what is causing all the mucus. Doc also requested Faecal Calprotectin and Faecal Immunochemical Tests. I had a clear NHS

Adhesions no endo found but said could be in the muscle?!

She said it could be in the muscle and/or could be adeno it wouldn’t be able to say for sure unless it got

Cause of rectal bleeding
Colonoscopy recommended by GI dr for substantial rectal bleeding for 2+ months. Completed EBRT 12 months ago. Suspect radiation proctitis. I’m concerned that invasive procedure could cause additional problems. Using prescription suppository (hydrocortisone acetate 25mg) twice daily. Is colonoscopy

Internal hemmroids
I'm 31 I had a colonoscopy when I was 18. Because of blood in stool. Came back I had internal hemmoriods and sometimes they still bother me and bleed I had a lot of blood the other day but I did strain knowing I shouldn't have and had a large stool. Should I have another colonoscopy or would it still

Still can't get a colonoscopy and blood was found in stool when I had a DRE. What should I do?
I'm now suffering from even more anxiety than I was before about the multitude of symptoms I've experienced since August of 2019. Because while I still can't get a colonoscopy at the present moment because I do have a physical obstruction that, unfortunately, would make it very hard for me to be able

Night sweats and worried.
44 year old male here. Having drenching night sweats. MRI, CT scans, endoscopy, colonoscopy blood work came back clean but I'm freaking out. Neck pain, night sweats, and stomach pain. Googling it brings up the C word. I called my doctor but they aren't as scared as me. I'm ready to go to the ER. Please

Second opinion? Calprotectin levels.
My recent colonoscopy showed inflammation only in my rectum. I’ve had bleeding since beginning of December which is what prompted my testing. I have no pain . Just occasional urgency. My symptoms have actually subsided all last week. However, I’ve been under stress since my results yesterday and stomach

I'm convinced it's bowel cancer and I'm going to die.
I posted here recently about my very high calprotectin level. I'm absolutely terrified and I cannot function. I am convinced that I have bowel cancer and I can't cope. Brief history below: Jan 2017: Referred to gastro as noticed blood in stool and calprotectin was almost 200. I delayed a colonoscopy
