Re: Worried and in need of some insight...

Update: I saw the gastroenterologist yesterday and left with more questions than answers. He never did an examination, on anything. Just ask questions and told me basically that it could be anything and I need a colonoscopy. Which I figured would be the case. But his answer to every one of my questi...

Re: Worried and in need of some insight...

And I forgot one more...I have bled like this for almost 10 years now. With Drs always saying, "if it doesn't stop after a couple days, you'll need a scope done" and it always stopped. When it would reoccur months later, same response. Would cancer bleed like this with no other symptoms f...

Re: Worried and in need of some insight...

Yes, it is itchy. And painful when I go. After four children, my bowels have not been the same since. My OB put me on Zofran for morning sickness with my kiddos back in 2009 and it blocked up my bowels horribly. They haven't ever been the same. They just don't seem to function like they used to. And...

Re: Worried and in need of some insight...

Hi and welcome. So sorry for all that has happened to you. How old are you? Does colon cancer run in your family? I'm glad you are seeing a GI doctor. Make sure you get a colonoscopy. That will give a true diagnoses of what is going on. Anything else is just a speculation. Your symptoms could be ca...

Re: Worried and in need of some insight...

Thank you so much for your response. I wish I could just kick this anxiety. I do have a couple questions. Having 2 CT scans with contrast both times, would it show cancer or polyps? Especially if it's at a point that it's changing the Calibur of my stool? I do have visible skin tags and hemmorhoids,...

Worried and in need of some insight...

Hello everyone. I have been reading through posts here for the past 6 months looking for comfort and guidance while I've been seeing Dr after Dr. I do not, as of yet, have a colon cancer diagnosis but I fear that it's a possibility.
