Anal tear, rhoids, cancer?

TT-

It definately sounds like yours is stress related, maybe anxiety. You have a good handle on it and take care of yourself, that’s cool. What a person eats can have a big effect, too. I used to eat lots of meat and carbs, not much fiber. Sometimes what we did when younger we cannot do later on, or not without a big price anyway, like surgery. I’m in my mid-forties, and I’m beginning to see that life doesn’t last forever, and what you did when younger can affect your quality of life later. The last ten years, I’ve seen more relatives die than I care to mention. Some of them seem to be dying younger that their parents did, and I’ve changed my diet to cut out too much junk food and processed crap. For a while I’ve been studying health now and then, alternative health sites, just whatever makes sense and to understand things a little better. Use everything you can, use the doctors, use natural medicine, use whatever has a chance to work.

You guys, blood in the stools is not a good thing. Once or twice is not a big deal if it stops and heals itself. If it’s continuous there’s a problem that needs solving. If it’s hemorrhoids, thats a loose blood vessel and they can suddenly break one day, from what I’ve heard. I’ve heard that people have bled to death from it. I would hate to be out camping or something and suddenly die from a blood vessel that I could have fixed if only I had done it earlier! I think if it were me, this is “one of those things” and I would get it looked into, get mad or get sad or get glad or whatever you have to do, and have a doctor look at it.

It’s a two-way street: if there’s blood in your stools, there’s toxins in your blood, too. It will stress out your immume system and cause other organs to work overtime detoxifying all this stuff. You feel crappier and crappier as time goes by. After years and years of this, you will have other problems as a result, maybe irreversible ones. I used to know a guy that had his intestines removed and wore the little bag, and it was all downhill after that… because he no longer had the intestines to digest any minerals or vitamins or anything. It’s not a happy life. Be smart, take care of yourself. Get over the fear and do it. You might be glad you did, later on. I know us american guys are scared or ashamed sometimes, but thats more of a learned thing, you can unlearn it too. To heck with what people think, it’s your health, not theirs. You might just need to change your diet. Eating bad can wear out your system and cause problems later in life. “Rock hard” stools are not good, especially tumbling around through soft tissues! Your body can take the abuse for many years, but not forever. Be good to your body, and it will be good to you.

Eyes wide, jaw slack, and can’t decide to laugh or cry.

Do we have sections of this forum for funniest thread, longest thread, best thread, etc…?

Can we put this in the WTF section?

Seriously, though. See the doctor! I guess if you would rather die (not that this will happen) than see the doctor it is your choice. If you have someone that depends on you like children, wife, or significant other, then maybe you can use this to motivate yourself to overcome your fear of the doctor. Good luck.

I am glad you were entertained. Sometimes the best school of psychology is actually ridicule and shame. But our friend needs a stiff upper lip like those UK people have, even if we are punching it to make it stiffer.

It is both good to laugh and cry. I think the Charles Manson avatar really packs some good punch with the words. To think what my psych and social worker class teachers would do if they saw this? I think their heads would explode. They would want my Psi Beta Psychology honor society award back. They can have it since they spelled my name wrong on it and I can’t use it for ID anyhow.

Apologies if I threw you with my rant. Kinkos is an photocopier center open 24 hours a day. I don’t think you have them in your country yet. Just think I was completely sober when I typed all this up.

PS: I heard Bush will nominate me for surgeon general after the next person resigns. I have to get my University of Tijuana medical degree in 6 weeks for only $1500.00 first. Help a brother out. I have the best bedside manor of any person in the medical profession. Think Hannibal Lecter as the real Patch Adams.

Hey all, I got a doctors appointment monday, thanks for the advice. I am shit scared though (no pun intended).

I have no hope - I just completely believe I got cancer, had a few dark stools lately, I aint meant to cry - I am a man, sheesh, I am gonna praise life if I haven’t got cancer.

Thanks all. (I am sorry to all the people that laugh about this, it was never supposed to entertain).

You guys have been good. Hopefully I am worrying for nothing.

Good luck. If for some odd reason you do have colon cancer, the earlier you catch it the better.

Rundown,

Know that at least I am thinking of you. It took a lot of courage to make that appointment, and you won’t regret it at all.

I’ll wager its nothing major, but then again, I’m not a doctor, but an optimist :) . And if it should be something not so nice, you are getting to it early and that in itself is a blessing. I caught my cervical cancer very early and have been clean for 21 years now.

Just so you know and can be prepared, they may want to do a colonoscopy, nothing major, they give you some nasty shit to drink first, but you can do it (I did) and then they give you what I call the I don’t give a damn drug and take a look see with a camera. I slept through mine. This is a valuable tool in determining what is wrong, and should be done. It isn’t scary, nor is it painful (ok, drinking that shit was horrid, but I got it down, and so can you) I had to have it done as I was suffering from severe diarrhea. (I am on meds for it now and doing just fine.)

Please keep us up to date on what is happening, we do care here at Thunders, we are a “little” family that spans the world.

I’m with Sunny, she gives the best possible advice and I should know.

Best wishes

Excellent! The first visit will be the hardest for you, but once you get over that, it will become a bit easier each and every time you have to go. But make sure that you do go cause they will want a checkup every so often.

At least in America, the way it went for me was normal doctor’s appointment (general practitioner), who looked me over and asked me a bunch of questions. How long has this happened? Do you eat something and this happens? Are you stressed when this happens? Etc……………

He should get a good idea of what is wrong with you. If it is simple shit like a hemorrhoid or an anal fissure he should be able to figure it out. He may want blood work done, cause he can tell how bad you are bleeding by the loss of a certain type of blood cells lacking or not in balance.

Make sure you tell him the stress you went through with this. He may prescribe some script for you to take. Most people with ass problems react extremely well to these simple mood drugs cause a large amount of serotonin is actually in your digestive track besides your brain. If you are taking any supplements for any reason tell him that you are. Don’t forget this. It is very important to not interact with whatever else they are going give you.

The next deal was reference to a specialist doctor who is a gastro intestinologist. He’ll tell you what is up if your problem is still going. He may order a few tests. An Upper GI in which you take this white paint looking milkshake and get x-rayed to see it slide through you. Highlighting any problem areas. I also had to get a Barium X ray which was not as easy as the first Upper GI Before this.

Finally I got a Colonscopy in which they look your but for problems. It wasn’t as bad as people think. In fact you can have it done in the doctor’s office sometimes. I went to the local hospital for mine. Supposedly there is a completely non-invasive version out there that requires no entry. My mother was talking about this since she saw an ad in the newspaper touting it.

You took an amazing first step here Kid. After your visit is done, tell us how it went. If you have any questions just ask, a bunch of us have had all this stuff already done to us.

Make sure you take a good shower before the doc looks at you and wash down their till it is squeaky clean.

Best of luck,

ACtually as far as doctors go, proctologists are some of the most amusing. Why is it they all seem to be slightly chubby with a good sense of humor? Is it the gobs of money they receive for for spelunking out ass caverns and dealing with dingleberries? Serious, they are the doctors with the best senses of humor about these things. They love asses and poo!! The women butt doctors are the best, they are power seekers to the fullest and most likely enjoy a good butt romp now and again from a gentlemen who undoubtedly earns less than them and who is generally quiet and obedient. Seroius, I am going to have Twatley teach me how to sneak into the next butt doctor convention in town so I can find me a good wifey! Then I will become a lazy good for nothing house husband and play sega all day.

Get your ass to a doctor, now! Dark blood is worse then bright red blood but it’s nothing to fuck around with… As far as a doctor inspecting your ass get used to it. Yes it sucks but it’s better to just get it done.

okay, that was all going well untill regularwhiteguys post, thanks mate, lol.

It can’t be something minor because the minor things come and go, mine has been there for a while now. Also If it is cancer, then I haven’t caught it early, had bleeding about 2 years ago and I ignored it. The minor things seem to be impossible, It can only be major I guess.

Thanks all, some of you guys are amazing.

P.s. I got a female doctor ;)

Tell her to fondle your balls during the inspection, tell her it will take your mind off things. :D

Just go, remain calm, and know no matter what happens you’ll get some answers and for a mere moment stop being your own worst enemy. Think of the relief you’ll have, when they say it is X, and not “A-W, nor Y or Z. It is like having your own car and being young in the decadent country of the Great Satan. One morning you come out and try to turn it over. Nothing happens. Did the battery run down or die completely? Is a negative ground off or did you seize the motor? Many things run rampant through your mind and a sense of relief comes when you find out all you needed was a jump from a neighbor to kick the bitch over.

PS: If you get a hot female doctor and pop wood, I’ll give you a drink when you make it over here or I get over there.;)

Good Luck
Uncle Twatty

Don’t forget to tell her of any meds you have taken or any weight lifting supplements. This could put a jinx on diagnosing you a bit. She should know how some stuff could intereact with it. So don’t pass up that chance.

A little blood in your ass is not uncommon and most likely a sign of straining too to hard to dislodge a couple of stubborn petrified logs. The probability of it being Cancer, is like 1 in a lot. Serious, do you go around worrying that a crazy drunken tall man will mow you down in his his white E300 conversion van as you walk along the road? It is probably more likely than you having ass cancer.
