I'm preparing for a colonoscopy. I've taken my 18 doses of miralax and my 4 dulcolax tablets. My stool is dark yellow and contains blood. Do I still take the 10 ounce bottle of magnesium citrate or not? Also, would this be cause to go to the ER?

I am a hypochondriac with somatic tendencies. I found a knot on my collarbone, had an X-ray which was fine, but later had a chest CT scan showing mild arthritis and oseophytes on my scapula and first rib joint. Despite these findings, I am still stressed and worried that something serious, like cancer, was missed. I have health anxiety and see a therapist. How can I manage my anxiety and reassure myself that there is no serious health issue?

I believe I have a hormonal imbalance due to excessive facial hair growth as a woman. I have not experienced recent weight loss/gain and am not excessively thirsty. What could be causing this and what steps should I take to address it?
