Hi guys, I'm new to the forum but just after a little advice, I've suffered with IBS for around 18 years, but symptoms have been very minimal for around 4 years now and had no medication at all since. For the last 3 months or so I have had mucus & bleeding, sometime feel like a need a BM and all I get is a little bloody mucus..occasional constipation but no diarrhoea or pain, no other symptoms.
I've been to the GP who's done bloods and 2 stool samples. Bloods and first sample came back fine, second sample has come back as inflamed bowel. I'm not sure on my readings until I speak to the GP tomorrow, but I'm starting to panic that it may be something really serious. Thank you in advance for any advice x

Hi, thanks for your reply, I have changed my diet slightly, I had a baby 7 months ago so just trying to shed the extra pounds, but my diets a lot healthier than it was, I also exercise 3 times per week, I don't smoke and don't drink excessively. It's just to strange as I have no other symptoms apart from the blood/mucous.
