Yes Lacey please insist on a colonoscopy. I don't want to scare you but I was experiencing the same kind of pain. I saw my primary care doctor and he said it was IBS and gave me some muscle relaxers. In two weeks time the pain got worse and I insisted on seeing a gastroenterologist to get a colonoscopy. The colonoscopy revealed nearly a total blockage from the tumor. My surgeon told me that I probobly saved my life by insisting on a colonoscopy. I found out later that I was misdiagnosed origonally because of my age (41 at the time). You are much younger. Inist on it. I pray it is nothing that serious.
