About a month ago my stool started being yellow with occasional blood in the mucus With the stool which really scared me,stomach seems always filled with gas but don't know weather that's me just overthinking it and causing that symptom due to constant fear,really worried about going number 2 to the point we're I put it off,constantly leaving in fear body aches,constant cough please help
Those symptoms don't mean you have cancer. More likely you have something less serious, it could be a simple infection or something similar. Being anxious makes you think you have the worst illness possible even if you don't. If you don't see any improvement I suggest you to go to a doctor explaining your symptoms and telling you have anxiety
Yellow stool wouldnt be cancer. A quick trip to the gp would wrap that up. But yes anxiety disorders make everything feel like its deadly or wont get better. The whole mindset is destroyed. Its frustrating. Its such self sabatage but hard to reverse it.
You've not got cancer but a quick trip to your GP will shed some light on what is causing the discouloration and blood.
The blood is most likely to be a pile which we all have, I get blood in my Nos 2 quite often.
Was the blood bright red? That usually indicates that tiny blood vessels break due to straining when going #2. Nothing serious. People who get constipated get this a lot .
yellow stool doesn't indicate cancer.
Your anxiety may make it everything seem worse than what it actually is,
To ease your mind, get a checkup at the doctor s .
You will be fine! 😃
Hi, please please stop worrying, I suffer with anxiety and when I have a bad time my stools are that colour, it's perfectly normal as my doctor explained when I asked that your tummy nerves are so sensitive and some people worry with their tummy as well as their mind!!
If you just tell yourself it's just the anxiety causing this I promise it will settle!
I'm on antidepressants and I still have the odd day where I'm not 100% but I'm so much more settled on them!
Hope this helps!!!
Thankyou all for talking the time to reply means a lot
And yea it was bright red blood and I have a doctors appointment on the 13th hope it all goes well,never felt like this before,anexity I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy it effects my daily life and really gets me down
