Been diagnosed 6 years ago now for IBS had tests saw consultant to rule other stuff out , had flex sigmodoscopy tummy scans , through the years symptoms stayed the same, im bad when stressed but very rarely "normal ' consultant said that this is normal for me now as i suffer with health anxiety and am very anxious person , nothing much has changed through the years now and again ( once in blue moon ) iv had tiny blood when wipe slightly but not regular or weekly , i do have a bunch of internal piles discovered on procedure when first diagnosed so that could be why ..
iv got myself all worried as saw a post on BC , should i go back again all these years on for another tests ?....symptoms same , undigested food , mushy , i just go once a day , i get some pain when really stressed or not eaten , wind when this happens ...., mucus , but as said no blood ...iv had lots of blood tests through the years on other health matters all fine , but was low iron/ferritin recently so on iron pills that has set me off to , but last 2 periods were heavy and im not good at eating veg so doctor thinks just that .
am i over reacting and letting my anxiety take over again ....im 42
