After Folfox tretments (2 so far) I have a viscous fluid with some blood coming from the anus and urge to urinate.

Is this "normal"?

    Woo hoo!

    Glad you were able to post your own thread. 

    John did reply to one of your posts in antoher thread, and he may cut and paste it here. 

    I don't remember any bloody discharge when I was doing chemo, but then, everyone is different, so it doesn't necissarily mean that there is something wrong. 

    I would certainly be talking to my Oncologist about it though. 

    Welcome to the forum.

    Blood and mucous term Folfox

    Thanks for being patient. 

    My onc. at MSK said that she didn't know what caused it. As long as I had a "normal" bowel movement she was not overly concerned. However she did say she would discuss with her "group" at MSK.

    To be continued.

    I didn't have any bloody

    I didn't have any bloody discharge with the Folfox treatment, just occassional diarrhea[ as many times as I've written that word, I still have to check the spelling].  If the docs don't address it, and it keeps up, I think I'd press the issue.................................Dave
