Inflamed Colon, Damaged Gall Bladder Due To Accident. Polyp Removed After Colonoscopy. Blood And Mucus In Stool. Family History Of Cancer

Hello Samuel, I pray you can help me. I went to the ER @ hospital. They did a catscan and my colon is all enflamed on the outside edge (a long strip of colon) And gallbladder is damaged from car accident in 1996 , pushed up higher than should be. DR in ER said it is a ticking time bomb, and is crunchy and crystalized. I had a colonoscopy a week ago. A polyp was removed, and biopsies were done. Still waiting for appt. for gallbladder, but for over a wekk my bowel movement is mostly just like slime, mucus, and a tiny bit of blood each time. And about 1/4 cup of just slime, some pinkish color, some looks like skin color. My Dad has colon cancer and stomach cancer right now & on chemo. I am afraid, because I have so much pain in colon and stomach, especially after I eat anything. Why do I have so much mucus & slimy stuff ? It actually looks like the inside lining of my colon, that shouldn't be coming out in such great quantities. Please ease my mind, before my appt. w/ the surgeon on Tues. she wants to talk about the biopsies with me. Thank you so much for your help, Martha Thomas, YYYY@YYYY

Hi,
You have mentioned that you have a colonoscopy a week ago. Then what was the exact fining of colonoscopy? Polyp may be found but the important information to have is the number of polyp. Colon cancer can run in family. Proper colon cancer screening protocol is there and that should be offered to the individual having history of colon cancer in family. You should wait for the biopsy report. Nothing to worry right now . take care.
