Hi , I suffer from extreme health anxiety which affects me daily . The last 2 days I have noticed that my poop is thin but not flat . It kind of looks like garden worms . I started a no carbs Keto diet 2nd January and not sure if it could be linked to this ? My bowel screening is up to date with my last one clear on April 2023 . Can anyone advise as I'm going out my head with worry .
Thank You
Hi LFT
The best advice anyone here could give you would be to make an appointment to see your GP.
Hopefully it will be nothing but any new symptoms should be investigated. Maybe you could also talk to your GP about your "extreme health anxiety" as this must be horrible to have to deal with this on a daily basis.
