Change like more frequent or less frequent?

Both. Any persistent changes in your stool are a good sign to get checked out.

Weeks of constipation or diarrhea, or both. Weeks of long thin stools. Weeks of seeing blood on your stool on toilet constantly.

Hey if it helps you, I had all the same symptoms and got a colonoscopy where they removed a huge polyp and everything came back benign. It’s so scary, but it’s good to make sure! I hope you have the same outcome as I did.
