It’s been a few months now and I’m really not satisfied. I’m probably a hypochondriac and my anxiety has been off the charts. I did see a colorectal surgeon and a DRE did show a lump and he was able to do a flexible sigmoidoscopy right then and there. The mucosa looked completely normal and nothing protruding into the bowel was seen so there wasn’t anything to biopsy. Because it was odd he sent me for a pelvic MRI with contrast. The mri report showed sigmoid diverticulosis and no “solid or cystic mass observed corresponding to the one felt”. Basically I have pockets in my colon and no mass. I still don’t understand what it was that may have been felt. The doctor did mention the possibility of endometriosis which would be honestly an ideal case scenario for me. My bleeding was chalked up to the numerous internal hemorrhoids and recurring anal fissure. I’m still worried I have cancer since the groove in my stool is still there.
