Hi , I'm a 39 year old female . Had a few weeks of bowel change , urgency for number 2 , sometimes loose , sometimes ok .stomach pains when need the toilet but not always , and no pain in stomach after bowel movement. But last week I had extreme pain around anal area when passing a stool , gp suspected internal pile , tried to examine me but was too painful , prescribed me some cream and ordered me to take a FIT test . ( I didn't see blood in my stool) . FIT test came back positive >400 , I've been fast tracked referred for colonoscopy for suspected cancer   I'm terrified . But since then my stool has been fairly normal , I saw a bit of bright red blood yesterday in my stool and when wiping and I had an extreme ripping pain when my stool came out .which burned for a couple of hours after.  Could this be a fissure ? Could that cause such a high FIT reading. Hoping for some reassurance as at the moment I'm thinking the worst .
