Re: Pain when going to toilet

Hi everyone I’m back just to let you guys know on Monday I had my CT Scan and blood test.  Will be seeing the Oncologist on the 17th April., hopeful it will be a good result?  Just want to ask a question if anyone here after completing the chemo treatment has had a problem when going to the toilet specifically when open your bowels it pulls and hurt.   My doctor did a urine test and there was no UTI infection  which is great but my doctor said they found a bit of blood  I think she said in my bladder?  It could be from the chemo not sure.

Re: Pain when going to toilet

I had some blood in my poo, freaked me out. Went to the cancer caregivers and they said it was a combination from straining/work/chemo and maybe hemorrhoids. Blood test came back all clear. Just side effects of everything.
