Hi All, I've had a successful anxiety free year long run. But recently I've noticed blood in my stool. I've had hemorrhoids before, but this time there doesn't appear to be any. I have no pain, just blood in my stool
( I'm freaking out. Life has been so good and so sweet this past year and now I'm sliding back to the dark place
Additionally, my Mom was recently diagnosed with lung cancer (good news is prognosis looks good), and work has been RIDICULOUSLY busy, we're short handed. I"m overwhelmed and of course now I think I have colon cancer. I had a colonoscopy 11 months ago and it came back normal (routing over 50 screening). I've made an appointment with the same gastro but not until January 4th. Now I'm wondering if I should try to get in sooner. Scared and overwhelmed.
