Your nodes could be popping up because of all your biopsys from nodes that could be responsible reacting to an infection, vicious circle.If your moles have come back clean then there’s no Melanoma. Blood in stool cam be from piles or even something like colitis.
Honestly unless you have some illness that is difficult to detect like Lyme disease or something worse I really don’t know what to say.
You sound like you have serious healthy anxiety like myself. You’ve had every test in those concerned areas and they have come back clean. A colonscope would of picked up a tumor in your Colon.
I suggest doing what I’m doing, finding help for my anxiety. It’s tough, really tough and I can see you are suffering.
You will drive yourself crazy, I was literally ready to die because I was suffering so much but now I’m becoming myself again.
Please get help.

The first thing you need to do is learn how to use the fullstop. It's almost impossible to read your post. The gist, I think, is that you are convinced you are sick with something but despite requesting and getting lots of testing you haven't been diagnosed with anything. I think we can be fairly certain you don't have melanoma, so there's no real point posting here. We are one trick ponies, we know melanoma and not much else… fortunately or unfortunately, it's the one cancer we deal with. All I can suggest is a colonoscopy for bowel trouble then just accept you don't have anything identifiable wrong with you. Most of us would kill to be able to do that…
