Hello,I am a 30/yr old woman. For the past few months,I have been experiencing fatigue really bad. I have blood in my stool that fills the water.Other times when I haven’t had a bowel movement and I wipe, bright red blood is on it.My temperature is normally now with all of this going on 97.7 but at times during the day goes to 99.9. My blood pressure is fluctuating between 100/60-130/80 in the course of a day as well. I have lower pain on my far lower side of my stomach and occasionally pain that comes and goes on my lower right side. I have made an appointment with the,G.I and it’s a two month wait to be seen and they cannot get me in any sooner. I do know I have internal hemorrhoids,but I don’t think it would cause this. I go from constipation with blood in it to pencil thin stools with blood in it. I have gone to the ER since the Dr can’t see me sooner and they said my cat scan with contrast in it reveals nothing and that my blood results are normal. So what could t his possibly be? Thank you
also diaherriah has blood in the stool as well
should also add that I get chills a lot even with it being in the 90′s outside and my feet are normally cold now.Anyone knows what this could be please let me know.Only one GI dr here that takes my insurance and I have tried getting the appointment sooner but they can’t.

I don’t have health coverage, but today I went to an appointment at a clinic. I have serious Hemorrhoids, high blood pressure, am inefficient in minerals, and am lacking red blood cells. I’ve been recommended to urgent care surgery ASAP, but I can’t afford it, and the doctor wouldn’t prescribe me any medications. Do you you know if there are any government programs that will help cover my surgery? (Family of 6, less than 100k income)

Okay I had my son about 6 months ago…off and on since then I have had off and on bleeding when going to the bathroom. It is sometimes on the surface of stool and on the toilet paper. I went to see my OBGYN about it about 2 months ago and he told me that it appeared as if I had an internal hemorroid. He has recommended using Metamucil everyday and lots of fluilds and such. Nothing happened since then…then about 4 days ago it occured again after not taking the metamucil for about 4 days. This will be too much information but it feels almost as if when you have really chapped lips or dry hands and the skin cracks that’s what it feels like. I am of course making an appointment with a digestive doctor but wondering if anyone had a similar thing or if they can tell me how they will test etc.

I am 17 years old and I had a little three week hemorrhoid episode when I was 16 years old but the hemorrhoid subsided and my stool patterns went back to normal. But recently, a new development has got me worried. I have some sort of hard spot next to my tail bone. At first I thought it might be some stool pushing on the side of my anus, but now its gotten longer and has started to inflame when I go to the bathroom (number 2) and it gets really hard and irritated. I can feel it and its pretty far from my actual anus. I have heard of two different types of hemorrhoids – external and internal – maybe this is an external hemorrhoid (because it doesnt even hurt half as much as the other one did)? I’m not sure, but im going to go to my doctor in 3 weeks, (I have an appointment) but I would like to know more information about it and how to treat it before then. Any help?

Have been feeling unwell for a while now. I know there is definitely something not right with my bowel. I’m constantly flitting between diarhoea and constipation. Have had blood in my bowel movements(on occassions toilet bowel full of blood). Stomach is constantly bloated, passing alot of gas and occassionally get pains in the right and left side of my abdomen. Have also been feeling very weak and go quite pale. I’m hoping that it hemorrhoids or something like that. But watched my Mum’s brother die at the age of 35 due to bowel cancer and as I’m 28 its kind of scared me.. I was living in England for a few years and did go to see a doctor who did an ultrasound and said if that didn’t show anything he would send me for a colonoscopy, he didn’t and he refused and said that I was stressed out. My friends and family all say that I am one of the most chilled out people they know, so don’t know where that came from? I have since moved back to New Zealand as I had no family in the UK and have finally booked an appointment with my normal GP. I’m just wondering what other people experienced before they had it diagnosed?
