Alright so I guess to start off with I'm
barely 19, and I'm not taking any
medications at all. I'm lactose and apple
juice intolerant so I don't consume either
of those. For the past few days I've felt
my intestines cramping badly, I've had
nausea, no appetite, been feeling gas
bubbles raging through my insides, and my
stomach is really bloated. Basically, the
main symptoms of diarrhea for me. But,
everytime the urge hits me and I go to the
restroom, all that comes out are white
mucus balls and nothing else (besides
gas), and it has the really gross, musty
smell of old blood. The best way to
describe it is if you've ever had Bubble
Tea, it reminds me exactly of the tapioca
in it only it's white, not black (I'm
sorry if I've ruined the drink for anyone
now). But when I felt the need today and
I rushed to the bathroom, the balls were
accompanied by blood. I start off alright
in the morning but as the day goes on my
stomach gets more bloated and my symptoms
get worse. I want to know what's going
on!
Cancer runs rampant in my family, my
cousin has Crohn's, and I get really weird
diseases. In the past five years I've had
Walking Pneumonia (when everyone else had
colds), walled-off Appendicitis,
Cat-Scratch Fever, a flu that lasted 2.5
weeks, and I've given birth (which had
absolutely no diabetes, no raised blood
pressure, nothing besides he was a week
late and I had to be induced). I need
some idea what's going on and I don't have
medical insurance so I can't quite
schedule a doctor's appt unless I know
it's necessary. Please help me!

I think that this is a necessary
situation. get into the doctor. and take a
sample with you.(yeah gross but helpful.
carry it in a brown lunch bag--you know
the paper kind)
