Bleeding with BM

Hello Edjo

It is very early days for you and although you weren't constipated the bleeding could be a side effect from treatment, certainly healing internally took me a lot longer than the external sores.  But I am not a medic, and in your shoes I would ring your treating team for reassurance; they are normally very receptive to anyone who has not long finished treatment.  Not that I think for one minute that there is anything wrong.  A handbook of what to expect after treatment would be really useful but then we would worry if we didn't get them!  

I know the worry is there and of course it is all still very fresh for you.  And to answer your question, yes, blood on occasion, in my case normally after a (slightly) hard stool.

Please let us know how you get on.  Big hug Edjo.

Thank you for you kind reply Irene. 

Yes I did what you suggested and called my nurse, she said it was normal for so early on after treatment. Just worried me when I seen it yesterday then again today :( 

Good to know that it's normal. 

I hope you're doing well?
