Blood in poop

I had blood in the toilet and when i wiped after a poo - this happened once maybe twice back in November and hasnt come back since. 

Im in 2 minds wether to go to my colonoscopy because if it was something more than piles/fissures surley the blood would be present more? 

Anyone any experience? 

Thanks 

  • Hello Haybe, 

    If you have been referred to have a colonoscopy, then it would be a good idea to still go to your appointment even if this only happened a couple of times back in November and the issue hasn't returned since. The colonoscopy will give you peace of mind and shed some light on what is going and whether there is any cause for concern or not. 

    I hope you will hear from others who have been in a similar position and that they will be along shortly to share their experience with you. 

    Best wishes,
