Hey everyone I have to make this fast. I have super high anxiety right now and I'm sort of freaking out. I was using the bathroom and I have a fissure. It sort of hurts, but it is getting better. I pooped and there was dark blood everywhere. I was like well its just my period maybe. But thats odd because I am on the pill and I barely bleed. (I don't have sex its just because I have very bad periods.) I got up to grab a mirror and blood was dripping everywhere!! It looked like a crime scene. Nothing was coming from my vagin it all was coming from my butt. My mom said that was good that I was bleeding because that means theres blood flow down there. Should I call my doctor.. I might do that without my mom knowing... Please I am so desperate and scared and alone someone help me.

My parents are super happy because they think this is good, but now I feel super lightheaded and tired like I am gonna pass out. I think I have a fever
help me

Why would they think that's good? I don't get it. Passing a lot of blood rectally is never good, as far as I know. Feeling lightheaded is another bad sign.

It may be overkill, but I would go to ER: better safe than sorry. If your parents object, show them this page.

PS: Take your temperature if you have a thermometer at home. If it's 38C (100.4F) or above, that's another good reason to go to ER.

Call your doctor immediately or go to the ER! Passing a lot of blood is not something I have ever heard as being good- quite the opposite! You could be extremely anemic too

Agreed, you definitely need to go to the ER.

I have no clue what I should do. The blood was pretty dark so I couldn't see if there was any in the stool. I got up and it immediately started to POOR out of me. I got it everywhere.. I had to clean it up.. Idk.. My parents are both in the medical field, but I agree with all of you that it isn't good I am rectally bleeding when they said it is. They said its better that I have no pain and that I am bleeding, opposed to when I have pain and no blood. I am so alone. Plus there is no pain so I think that is a sign I have inflammation. Out of all of the years I have been having rectal bleeding I have never, in my 15 years of life seen such an ungodly amount of blood come out of me.
I am scared and I need help.
My doctor isn't on call, my mom and I were gonna call, but they would have said to go to the er which my family doesn't feel like doing because theres football tonight.
I am gonna go to the bathroom to see if there is any blood on my underwear or anything. My mother said if there is then we have to go to the er, if theres not then I can go to school tomorrow.. My mom did say that I looked pale.. Ill keep you guys updated on what I find.

Blood on outside.. I told mom to come in my room to call doctor.. keep updated

I think my parents just don't feel like dealing with this right now.

That's terrible! Your parents may be doctors but that doesn't make them experts in crohns unless they are GI specialists but from the types of things your saying they really don't know much about this disease. You get increased blood flow when you have inflammation. The first thing a GI asked is if you have bleeding and it is always a bad sign. You need to get help.

You poor thing! A fissure and flare up? I think you should be seen. Even if it's just the fissure, at least you will find out and feel better. With the anxiety you're having, you need to go and find out, so you can clear your mind. You would probably know if it was time for your period since most birth control pills have a week off. If you take continuously, usually you can tell if you're going to get your cycle based on symptoms prior, or it's a light period, like a few drops, wouldn't drip, not like what you're describing.

What is wrong with your parents? Can you call a taxi and go to the ER by yourself?
Posted 1/22/2018 12:36 AM (GMT 0)
Agree with the responses you're getting. You need to get to the ER pronto!!!!! Your Parents should both realize that passing blood is never good. This must get checked out ASAP!!!

I can't sad I am only 15 I live in the East of US. The plan is just to go to school tomorrow. They think its ok because I am not actively bleeding and if theres no pain then theres no worries. I told my mom I had a bad feeling about this and she said thats nothings wrong and she wants to get me to school. I feel horrible.. My parents care about me, but not enough sometimes.. I really need someone to take care of me. Ive been light headed all day.. my mom said it was because I did eat. so I ate and no difference.. now she's saying its because I am tired.. oh well. They never believe me. I am just gonna bite the bullet and go to school and hope nothing bad happens.

any idea whats wrong with me?? how do I cope with this without my parents or a doctor??
I just want to shake my parents and make them understand. any way I can do that??
HELP

my mom said before that my pulse is fine so theres probably nothing wrong and I only feel like this because I've seen a lot of blood
Posted 1/22/2018 12:56 AM (GMT 0)
Im so sorry you are going through this. Its hard to say why your parents are acting this way,- maybe they are in denial. My best advice would be go to school and go to the school nurse, they can check your blood pressure, etc. Also, Can you get a hold of your Dr in the morning? make sure you drink plenty to stay hydrated in the mean time.
Posted 1/22/2018 1:13 AM (GMT 0)
yes, we are in communication with my doctor.. the school nurse is not an option because its a long story.. my dad just got telling me that because it was a little(which it absolutely was not) I would be fine.. I feel too week to fight with anyone about it at the moment so I just lets the room.. I'm just gonna end up crying myself to sleep again.. I need help.

Next time, take a picture of how much blood it is. I would tell a teacher at school tomorrow about the entire situation. The school nurse could at least take your blood pressure. Pulse isn't always an indicator of general health. Also, I would call the doctor YOURSELF and not go through your parents.
Posted 1/22/2018 1:58 AM (GMT 0)
definitely call the doctor yourself. Could you speak to your therapist? maybe there is something she could do to help?
Posted 1/22/2018 10:24 PM (GMT 0)
Have you been able to see or at least call the gi dr
