Hello ramirezv22, I can understand your frustration. Canada having a national health system, has had it s share of problems. Long delays in getting certain tests done and also getting quick referrals to specialists .I can t blame the physicians but the system. Be that as it may, now about your specific problem of fresh blood in the stool and intermittent diarrhea and costipation. Irritable Bowel Syndrome is not associated with bloody stools. However if there is considerable constipation straining at stool can irritate small hemorrhoids or cause a fissure or a crack that could bleed. If you have diverticulosis but not an inflammation such as diverticulitis , you should make sure your diet is a high fiber diet. You can take Metamucil oe Effersyllium powder supplement , about two teaspoons daily mixed with 6-8 oz, of liquid. I am glad that all your blood tests were normal. I hope you have no problem with milk,cheese or other dairy products. Also, make sure you are tested for Celiac disease. It is missed by a lot of doctors since the symptoms could be so much variable. Local warm sitz baths and use of over the counter hemorrhoid creams are helpful. Hopefully, you will get a referral to see a GI specialist soon. Wish you good health.
