I appoligise this is long but I was hoping for some advice.
I suufer from Anxiety and depression and at it's worse I can go to the toilet (2) a few times a day and very loose. About Aug last year I started to get a stinging sensation about 4 inches up inside rectum. I was sent for a flexible sigmoid? which found nothing then a Colonoscopy which failed half way around due to having a kink in the bowel? They then sent me for barium X rays and found nothing?
In December I woke up to see that i had been beeding (bright red) in the night, paniced and called an ambulance. A didgital examination revealed nothing so they then sent me for another sigmoid examination which found 3 interneal hemerhoids? these were treated with Rubber Bands 10 weeks ago. I was then sent for a CT scan from chest to Pelvis because of my worries of family bowel cancer. This proved negative. Really I should stop worrying but after a bowel movement which are always fairly loose I get the stinging which last all day? It has been mentioned that I have IBS and also I am due to go back to the specialist in late July which is an awful long time off. I was wondering if any of this makes sense and if I should stop fretting? I am also an undertaker which does not help as you hear so many horror stories of misdiagnosis??? Many Thanks C
