OK, so I am wondering if anyone else on here has had issues with vaginal bleeding or clots after/with a bowel movment.
Once I just had light pink spotting , and I had some cramping ( I think the cramping was just the normal stretching and stuff of the uterus) and they made me come in for an ultrasound to check everything...and they found no source of bleeding, the baby is right on track. (Im nine weeks and 3 days)
Now I just had an issue where I had a bowel movement and passed three pea sized blood clots (dark in color , im saying that because the nurse said that did matter).
I dont have bleeding between bowel movments, I personally dont feel like im straining. I know I am constipated and after the first time I started taking Mirlax and I havent seen the benefits of it yet, so I will probably resort to taking it everyday to try and prevent this issue.
The nurse said its probably nothing since the clots are dark and I dont have bright red bleeding with it, but I am just curious if anyone else with CF has dealt with this. I really feel it has to do with the bulky stools because in my opnion I am not straining ( I tried to explain this to a nurse about the CF stools and that my opinion of straining is probably different than theirs).
Sorry if this is TMI for some people but I just felt most CFers are used to graphic issues and that I have nothing to loose with asking.
