hey,

sorry to hear you are stressed out. i would definitely agree with you that there seems to be dark blood within your stool. that being said, its most likely not cancer. could be ibs, or even benign polyp that is easily removed. go see your doc, he’ll probably have you do a fit test, and if it confirms blood, then i would push for a colonoscopy. do not let them push a sigmoidoscopy on you, that doesnt search your whole colon.

best of luck!
