Frequent bleeding from the rectum when having a bowel movement.

Posted by roderuner2 @roderuner2, Apr 18 5:58pm

I am retired living in a retirement facility. I have been told by the attendants that I have hemorides. Two years ago I had prostate cancer.
I went through radiation and now I undergo various medical treatments for after effects.
I have been continued bleeding during bowel movements.
After reading some of your descriptions, I wonder if I might have a continued Cancer problem.

you need to see a doctor, you may just have hemorrhoids but it is not verified by exam, tests, or any scan, you write you undergo non related medical treatments, for these treatments do you see a physician? If yes, please voice your issues, and call your prostate oncologist for further help.

@roderuner2
Have you had a colonoscopy recently? If not, you should as soon as possible and make an appointment with a gastroenterologist. You may want your doctor to do an ultrasound of your abdomen and recheck your prostate and bloodwork.
