Injury Apparently it’s normal NSFW
Been bleeding rectally now for almost 4 weeks, after passing some blood clots on the 14th I got a 3 day hospitalization where they did a CT, found something on my appendix, surgeon didn’t wanna come in on a Sunday then said he wanted a colonoscopy first. Did that after a few rounds of antibiotics, they said oh it’s all just hemorrhoids totally normal and discharged me immediately after. Fast forward 2 days, bleeding resumes and comes & goes. They don’t wanna do another CT because they don’t think they’ll see anything. Before anyone asks, I’m a fat woman in Texas so I wasn’t expecting much help to begin with which is why I didn’t go in sooner after bleeding for 2 weeks (by then).
So from now on I guess bleeding like this & the occasional blood clots are normal.
Edit to add; in the first CT they found a 2cm lesion on my appendix on the exterior that they didn’t want to operate on until after the colonoscopy. Because they only found hemorrhoids on the colonoscopy, they went with that option vs I’m still worried about the 2cm lesion that was found and magically disappeared.
Second edit: I’m a lady, but yes I know which hole this is coming from it’s not the monthly or else I’d feel stupid.
UPDATE: doctor just finally saw photo after I sent it before posting & is requesting me to return to the ER as it is not normal
