Hi everyone, here I go again. For the past month every single bowel movement (which I mean every single one) has had tiny black specs in it. I am very worried that I have some bleed and of course some C. It is scary because I keep playing with my diet but NOTHING CHANGES they are still there every single bowel movement. Please help me!!!! My appt isnt until September I am going crazy.
You could call the docs office and ask to do a stool sample kit before your appointment. That way, the doc should have results by the time of your appt.
