Internal hemorrhoids bleed alot?
Posted: Mon Jan 08, 2018 1:24 pm
I saw my GI DR in November for slight rectal bleeding along the side of my stool. I had just had a CT scan a few days earlier, he did not examine me based on the CT and to call him if there were any changes.
This weekend I had a lot of bleeding after bowel movement. Not streaks, but actual bright red streaks pouring out of me.
I called the GI DR 1st thing this morning. His secretary called back and said, based on my Nov CT he does not want to examine me but is calling in a hemorrhoid cream. I insisted on booking a follow up appointment and got the end of the month, so at least that is in place.
I see my oncologist on Friday and my primary DR next week, so I will bring it up with them. Not sure why GI DR is so reluctant to do a sig scope?
Anyone else have similar experience or thoughts?
