When I heard this person talk @ "off-white" spots on colon, I had to ask- does anybody know anything @ white round spots on the bowel itself? I noticed them on my bowel today. Let me explain a little further: i've been having bowel trouble for as long as I can remember but i'm too scared to go to the Dr., even though the one time I did (in march 2005) he thought he found a "lump" during an external exam in my lower left abdominal area, where alot of recent pain had been coming from...They did an ultrasound and said there was nothing except a tilted uterus (slightly)-supposedly "no problem" there, right? O.K., so- whatever! Back to my bowel problems- I only have a "b.M." maybe once, twice a week (if i'm very lucky!!) and sometimes only once every 2-3 weeks. When I do, they are exremely painful, I can't move or speak unless it's to scream in agony, tears stream down my face, I pound the walls next to me- it's like labor pain, I swear!! They are sometimes very large, of course, but many times just little "balls". Also I have xtreme acid indigestion, all the time, now (it used to be only occasional) and increasing abdominal pain on a daily basis. I've tried laxatives & high-fiber diets, even zantac & carafate doesn't seemed to help although I haven't taken it much, yet, as it's my husband's medication & he needs it, too. I have a "phobia" @ Dr.'s because I used to be a drug-addict & was treated very unfairly in the past-now they pre-judge it seems all the time (ahcccs Dr.'s, of course) even though I don't use any drugs & haven't for yrs., now. Today I had a very small b.M.; only 2 little pieces, but they both had a significant round white spot on each one!! I've never even heard of this, but now i'm very frightened! Anyone know what this could be? Oh, also i've had cervical cancer b-4 but they caught it right away & as far as I know it's gone.
