Yes I guess so. I guess it's because I'm a coward and run a mile from any tests.

Its all down to the individual and if it gives reassurance then it would be the right thing to do.

Sorry.

Honeybun I hate tests too!  Honestly, until I went into the meno, I wouldn't go near a doc, as I'm frightened of everything as well.  I really appreciated your response, as I really need people to tell me to pull myself together and accept what I've been told.  Equally, Sparkle is on the same page as me as well, I will probably worry everytime I see blood in the toilet, if it's piles or something more in the future if I don 't have it done.  CLKD, I went the loo this morning and when I saw blood I just repeated in my head what the doc said: 'You have a cut at 5 o'clock and at 7 o'clock' (Apparently they see the inside of a bum as a clockface haha).  I feel really calm at the moment and I'm just going to allow my body to heal, accept that there will be blood until it heals and wait until I go back my GP next week and see about the referral.  Although, I'm not sure if the A and E doc has already written to the doc and suggested this anyway, as he seemed quite adamant that I have it done and get rid of all the piles I have.

How do you feel! chuffed hopefully!  Half an hour at a time  …….. you will get there and yep, the clock-face is used in many medical situations

Mandy that's fantastic reframing of your thoughts! - you go girl!!  Just keep practising that type of thought reframing of the situation and you will start to feel more in control of the situation and less anxious - I hope things continue to improve.
