prayers up for healing, medical guidance and recovery.
Unping me please. Thanks.
This sounds serious. It's certainly nothing to be trifled with. Please take all medical resources available.
Prayers that the doctor may be guided by God’s wisdom and you may experience profound healing.
Ok, Prayers sent
Prayers..God bless you.
God wants you to be well. You are in our Prayers.
Prayers.
Prayers up!
I had the same problem a year or so ago. I had bowl movements of bloody diarrhea, and I was very weak. I called my wife, who was over at her parents, and told her that I had to go to the hospital.
The doctor quickly diagnosed me as being dehydrated. As I think back on it, I realized that I was drinking almost no water during the day. I drank only when very thirsty.
It taught me a lesson. I now drink several liters per day, even if I am not thirsty.
Prayers up...
Prayers up, OneVike. It is probably a minor irritation, but you are doing the right thing. Please let us know how you are feeling after you see your doctor.
I agree with Sivad. Diverticulitis (treatable) is very possible. If the blood is bright red then cancer of some sort is not likely. “Old” blood in your stool resembling coffee grounds would be more worrisome. But we’re not doctors at FR so please hurry to see one this morning.
There are some nasty bugs going around. Sounds like your gut flora are totally wacked. Eating BRATS is the wrong approach, but what does the AMA know about gut flora? Meat broths, yogurt, kefir, probiotics might give you the boost you need to get back to normal.
prayers up!
I urge you to focus on what the Bible says about your healing. The more you focus on symptoms, doctors, and what other people went through, the more you will be distracted by what is taking place in the physical realm. Christ has already paid the price for your healing. I care about you and want you well, but the battle is fought first in your own mind. What you “consider” right now will greatly affect you. Yes, see your doctor. Your symptoms are real, and the devil wants you to be afraid. The evil one is the author of fear. God’s truth will always trump our reality. Focus on what the Word says. The Great Physician wants you well (3 John 2). He is not the Author of disease. Jesus paid for our healing and it is a done deal (I Peter 2:24). God bless you.
Prayers up. As you can see, there are numerous posts from those who have had similar issues, none were cancer, which should give you solace. In late February, I began having lower gastro issues with bleeding etc. which I passed off as a virus. Ten days later, it became worse along with fever and dizziness. I went to my doctor and a week of tests including endoscopy, showed nothing, but I was still sick. Finally, they ordered a stool sample and I had the potentially fatal c-diff (clostrium difficile) which in 98% of all cases is related to antibiotic usage. I have not had an antibiotic in eight years, so I contracted it somewhere in the community, which is rare. After two rounds, a month of the most heinous antibiotic in the world, almost three months of complete bed rest, I was finally able to clear it from my system. Ask your doctor about this possibility.
Prayers up. May God Bless.
