Blood

How can blood appear with one BM then be completely gone the next day's BM? It just seems like the blood shouldn't stop just like that.

Yeah, it did feel kind of sore in the canal afterwards, but usually it's a drip if that's the case

Hmmmm.
To be honest, if the blood is gone and you're doing ok, I'd not worry about it, just focus on the future. Weren't you restarting the rowasas.....?

I've been having a bit of blood on the TP for the first BM of the day, so... I guess I'm envious that yours seems to have gone away already!

I see that same thing too, sometimes.  Several days all looks good, then there's bright red blood, just once, then again nothing.  Very weird.  I just wish I could see what's going on inside me, like watching a scratch on my arm heal, I can see it and understand what's happening.  But inside, I can't see or feel it, just get scary signs (blood, mucous) that something isn't quite right in there.

Yes, I did increase the enemas, but weird it should clear up in one day. Just one of those mysteries. Blood today. Gone tomorrow.

     Used to happen to me all the time.

Ellen - please, forum rules, no discussion of suicide.

And.... for me, rectal steroids have been very helpful - much preferable to oral. Sometimes in my 25 or so years I've needed them, and I've been happy to be able to use them.
