I Am A 53 Y/o Female(nurse), Unemployed And No Insurance

I am a 53 y/o female(nurse), unemployed and no insurance at this time. I have been having blood streaked stools with occasional clots and mucous for 5 months. I have had a colonoscopy, a rectal scope(was about to have internal hemmorhiod banding and none were seen), a barium enema and a meckel scan. All have been negative. I have had 2 CBC 's done and are in normal range.The doctor sent me a letter with my last lab results and says this means I am not bleeding internally. (ha) I have gained 12 lbs in the last 3 months.I do have more stools per day and a lot of flatus, no constipatin or diarrhea,and no other physical symptomsNow I am told I can go to a GI doctor but not get in for four months! What else can I do . This is not normal.
