I had rectal bleeding for two days. I went to the doctor and she said it was either hemmoroids or an anal fissure becuase I'm so young. I was straining and constipated before the bleeding started. 2 days later I wasn't bleeding anymore. My appointment with a specialist is in 2 weeks, should I keep it or should I cancel since the bleeding has stopped?

You should still go to be sure but it sounds like it was just an anal fissure.

Do not cancel your appointment, if its just haemorrhoid's---great--, but it should be investigated.
Colon cancer is on the rise because people find it embarrassing to see the doctor. And it can happen so fast and silent, yes, GO and Good Luck!!

I think you should go. Just in case you are missing something.
