Sorry, me again, I also got admitted to hospital Friday night with heavy bleeding from my back end, so much blood loss I was dizzy and fainted. Dr said it was likely due to damage from radiotherapy and internal scans/ clots coming off and bursting blood vessels.
has anyone else had this?

Hi Sozza,
I’ve just read your other post also & I’m really sorry that you’re going through this right now. I’ve suffered intermittent bleeding but usually following a difficult BM, it’s also only when I go to the loo & when I wipe, never in between, this has got less & less as time’s gone on & now almost 3 years post treatment it rarely happens. Have the Dr’s advised you on what to do if this continues to happen? Do you have a check-up booked anytime soon?
I didn’t suffer any nausea either thankfully, I took anti-sickness when I first started treatment but once I finished the pack I was given I didn’t renew them, my appetite was quite good throughout too. You must be completely exhausted with both of these issues going on,
Sorry I couldn’t be of more help.
Nicola
