Answer 1

First of all, please allow me to encourage you...I know you are nervous about this, but just:
1.Keep the appointment that you have
2. Ask alot of questions
3. Do your own research on the internet (google term, "Colon Cancer")
4. Stay on the doctors and nurses until you get a definite answer
5. Ask for an ultra sound of your entire stomach

I'm not trying to offend, but if you believe in prayer, let your conversations with God be your refuge during this time as well.

You are what you think you are....do not think about the sick- ness and allow your mind to be attacked with dispair. Accentuate the positive...your new baby, and your future!

Let me know how it goes...I'll be praying for you.

Answer 2

if the stool appeared normal, and you just had blood clots that looked fairly fresh, I wouldn't worry about it, because of your constipation any bleeding from hemmerhoids would pool in your lower bowel and appear as clots when you finally pushed hard enough to evacuate.
