Hi Veronica

SUrprised no one has replied to your message yet.. SO... here I am LOL
DONT PANIC!!! Calm down and even if u cant afford it, you should really go and see a doctor for sure.. Just so he can check it out, perhaps order a colonscopy for you. The results, if not good, then at least you will have caught it early, but if good, then you can stop all the unneccessary worry.
Please get it checked out and let us know how u went. U have come to the right place. YOu will find support and love here for sure !!

If youve had the colonoscopy done go with that.. IF they have found nothing, please dont worry. Very very possible that the iron you are taking is making your BM black.
