I'm not sure where to post about this stuff so I guess I'll start here. I'm 29 and have had chronic bad diarrhea for years and years. It's gotten worse and the pains are worse.
Today I'm having a CT and my dr mentioned looking for colon cancer. I was supposed to have a colonoscopy this past Monday but dr decided to do a CT first.
I seriously thought the near constant yellow Diarhhea was normal as were the painful bowel movements.
This ct today I have to drink a prep (no food or drink after 9 am) and then it will be iv contrast. Would the CT really show my bowels enough for a diagnosis? Will it show anything?
I'm worried. We have history of colon cancer
