I had the stomach flu twice back in late nov/early dec. Of 2006. After this I slowly began to see some blood in my stool. I figured it was simply a small tear in my anus or something from not having any food in me and then having food in me. But over the last 2-3 weeks I have noticed more and more blood in my stool and in the potty(sorry, I work with small kids) when I have a bm. Could this simply be that I need more fiber? I am a vegitarian... Or could it be something much worse like hemroids or colon cancer? Is it worth going to the health center at my school? I am really private about stuff and I dont want to go to the health center if this is something I can fix myself...
Thanks for letting me vent/question stuff. Hopefully someone will be able to help me soon
