Guest guest Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 Hi All, Most here won't remember me as it has been quite some time since I have posted. I still try to read a handful of the posts every day or so to keep up-to-date. I was wondering if anybody knows if there is any other cause (other than cc) for misformed stools? Lately mine have looked liked they came out of a pasta press (sorry for the visual!) Would polyps or hemroids also cause this? I'm hoping to get a colonoscopy soon but in the meantime am feeling quite anxious about this. Kathy 7/02 Dad diagnosed with cc.
