What Were My Colorectal Cancer Symptoms?

- What were the symptoms that I experienced leading up to my Colorectal Cancer diagnosis? I’ll share with you what those symptoms were, the timeline of when those symptoms popped up, and what I tried to attempt to fix them.
If you’re experiencing any kind of changes in your body (and it doesn’t have to be potentially cancer-related) here is the list of important things to keep track of for talking with your doctor in order to help figure out what is going on:
1) when did the symptoms start
2) is there anything you do that makes it better or worse
3) what is the quality of the symptom or pain (such as is it dull or sharp pain, is there blood in the toilet or in your stool)
4) if there is pain, does it start in one place then radiate to another
5) how severe is the pain
6) how long the symptoms have lasted
Here is the link to the site I mentioned in the video on the rise of Colorectal Cancer in young adults: www.cancer.org/latest-news/st...

Cancer free one year today!!!
That’s awesome, Brandon! Congratulations 🥳🎉 Hope you’re doing something special.
@@SurvivorJelena oh yea
I have my reconnect scheduled for January 4! 😄💙😊

@@SurvivorJelenaam besten dein Kiefer einrenken lassen. Tut dir nichts weh?
GOD be PRAISED🙏🙏…bless you
Oh God I can relate to this too much. I had bad stomach issues then regularly started crapping my pants. My stomach got so bad I was canceling plans. I had mucus, blood ect and was always having really foul smelling poops that never made me feel Empty.
I finally saw a doctor. Had stool samples taken, blood work and when was nothing was found I had a scope.
Alas there was a bleeding tumor. I was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer at age 25.. I still wish I aware of resources and people to talk to when I felt like I would never feel normal again.
I had two rounds of chemo and , a round of radiation and two surgeries. I had diarriah 10-20 times a day for 5 years and then gradually my bowels calmed down.
I can't say my stomach is ever going to be great but it got better and hey, I'm alive.
12 years cancer free❤ congratulations to you❤❤
Congrats on making it 12 years cancer-free! I'm glad to hear things have improved for you over the years. 💙
Stool samples you mean FIT test?
You had diarrhoea after stoma reversal? For 5 years? How could you cope with it? I think you must stay home all day long!
My Mum has been that way for getting on 10 years now - and yes she rarely ventures out too far. She usually needs to 'go' within about 15 mins of a meal. She had a stoma for about 6 years following bowl cancer and sometimes says things were far better then, before she was 're-plumbed' as she puts it.
@@maxthelab8457 I'm kind of curious. What kind of diet can your mother handle? Are there certain foods that aggravate or alleviate her condition?
And if the OP is reading this, I'd like to hear about her diet, too.
I had similar symptoms. But luckily it was IBS, haemorrhoids and stress that were causing it. After a colonoscopy, it was luckily confirmed it was nothing serious. At the end of the day, it's better to rule out something serious than assuming that it's harmless.
Yes, definitely! Not knowing is worse - once you find out what you’re dealing with you can start to help/solve the problem. I’m glad to hear you found out what was causing your issues and that it wasn’t cancer 💙
Same. I still worry sometimes though its not like the IBS is getting better.
@theguynextdoor4978 how you checked that please reply..
I have problems with my colon for years. Sometimes there is also a little blood. But I think it's something else because it was the last time maybe a year ago and I feel very healthy.
But still I think I have a high risk for colon cancer. Maybe I should go to a doc but I am afraid.
My GI told me it's just IBS after losing 20# in ¹4 days. Luckily, my service dog is smarter than him and alerted me that it was a gallbladder issue. Within 48 hours of the visit with my GI, I was undergoing am emergent gallbladder removal because it was necrotic. I was only a few hours from going septic
I was diagnosed stage 4 colon cancer by the end of 2019 at the age of 39, undergone 13 cycles of chemo, 25 sessions of radio theraphy, 4 operations and atleast 3 more to go, to resolves complications. But i am cancer free now. Thanks be to God!
Thank you for sharing your experience
Yeah, thank you god for the cancer!
Thanks be to those awesome professional Doctors that are currently saving your life. Glad you are cancer free!!
@@kf91274dr.s just care about the loot.
Wow, may i ask how did you get diagnosed? Did you simply started to have symptoms and went to the doctor?
@@davidgrana1268 2nd quarter of 2019, from time to time i had blood in my stools,not much but enough to make me worried. Late Oct 2019, i always felt bloated, by Nov went to ER for assessment and thats the start of many treatments and surgery
Thank you for sharing . I almost died of colin cancer Aug of 2023. The cancer in my colin was a hugh mass that was ready to burst. If I wouldn't have gone to the hospital that night it would have burst and I would have died. Iam still doing chemo. I finished my radiation and doing well. Please pray for me! I will pray for you and again thank you for sharing. We need to inform more people of this horrible cancer.
I pray für you! 👍🙏🍀
Díos te bendiga. Amén 🙏

20 years since diagnosis and colon resection. Still here!!!
Congratulations 🥳
I had absolutely no signs but got diagnosed during "50" colonoscopy, thankfully 5 years cancer free May 2023, thank God.
Congrats on being cancer-free for 5 years! 🥳🥳🥳 You’re the poster child for why it’s so important to get screened on time.
I like it that you get straight to the point with no side stories. Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome!
I had the same symptoms and diagnosis in 2015. I had stage 3 colorectal cancer at age 41. It was a very difficult fight but im still here in 2023. Thanks for sharing your story and remember to live your best life every day. God bless you.
Thank you for sharing and I'm so happy you survived. Glad to have you alive and well in this world. All the best.
@Vestu thanks alot!
What did you do while having colon cancer?
Thanks for sharing your experience with colorectal cancer, as unpleasant as it was. It is so important to catch cancer early. I'm a cancer survivor too. I was in my mid-40s when I was diagnosed. Thank goodness for Obama care or I wouldn't be here to write this.
I’m glad to hear yours was caught early enough too that you’re still here 💙
I’m glad you found something to smile about!!So sorry for all the pain from UC which you had!!
Thank you for the symptoms etc. Very important to get the word out to everyone.
Congrats on you progress! Your a fighter and a survivor
Thank you for sharing your videos and I hope you feel better soon and you are not alone there are some of us are going through something and my heart goes out to you. And the greatest Christmas present I wish for is that cancer and heart disease and all these diseases be cured and taken away from us.
Thank you for sharing! You are helping countless people by doing so.
Thank you for sharing your story and congrats on your healing ❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing your symptoms with me/us. Hope you are doing well today, November 18, 2023. 😊
I’m glad you are here helping people with your experience. Keep rollin Sister👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you for sharing and I'm so glad you survived. All the best to you. The takeaway for me was that the serious possibilities should be ruled out immediately when there's blood involved.
I’m so sorry to hear that but happy you survive!! I feel I have to take care of myself because I’ve been all my life constipated
Sorry thar you had to go through this. Thanks for posting this information.
Hi Jelena-I’m really glad to find your channel-at first I thought well she is showing every one else’s stories so I’ll just check out someone who is willing to share his/her own story.
But NOW- I’m SO impressed with how much you are helping me to understand anatomy., symptoms etc that I really want to thank you!!
One thing is that you said there would be a card you were going to put it “above” then you pointed to the air space behind your head where people put video links -but there wasn’t anything no video link that I could click on. Is there a link somewhere else to find the information that you were speaking of?
Thank you so much for everything you have put up on the Internet about CRC stories and how to get help and about screening 👍🌺🌈🙂
You fell into my TH-cam feed today for some reason (I haven't event looked up this kind of info on yt)! I have my colonoscopy tomorrow because have had the symptoms. Thanks for sharing your story and hope you are well!
I am doing well! I'm glad you happened upon my videos 😀 I hope your colonoscopy went ok 💙
Great Video ! Especially those who are young ! Thank you for spreading Awareness ! Sending love 💗
Thank you so much!
This type of medical care is UNHEARD OF where I am. Your doctors listened to you and got you in very quickly after trying something for a week that didn't help.
Can relate. I was diagnosed Stage 4 carcinoma rectal cancer after my first colonoscopy on July 27, 2023 (just turned 51 a day after my birthday). I had most symptoms like rectal bleeding, frequent bowl movements, fatigue, loss of appetite, abdominal pain, and diarrhea now into fecal incontinence (wearing adult diapers due to loss control of bowel movements).
My FML and health insurance come Dec. 2023 is expiring soon and had been denied of government help (state health insurance and SSI). Added stress; soon to be unemployed. Right in the middle of chemo treatments and IVF for dehydration.
As I can see looks like a chemo port implant.
All the Best for you, prayers ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙💙💙💚💚💚💚💚🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
Cancer should be a standardized initial test. After that clears then check for nothing else. At best!
Thankyou for being so down to earth x x
Thankyou ill share my story one day 😢
You’re welcome 💙
Your channel is the most informative one I’ve ever seen in relation to colorectal cancer, Ostomy, Ileostomy, Cancer in general and all the related treatments and side effects. I went through much the same as you in the last three years although my ileostomy hasn’t yet been reversed (fingers crossed that will happen next year).
Thank you so much! I’m so flattered to hear that you think so highly of my videos 💙
Hi Jelena that s pretty cool that you have overcome the cancer. I thought we only could contract this kind of cancer at the age of 40 or 50 years old
Bleeding from your rectum and the nurse practitioner didn't do a rectal exam or immediately schedule a colonoscopy. Shaking my head, this is the 2nd time including myself that a nurse practitioner failed to recognize common cancer symptoms. I had uterine cancer and a nurse practitioner sent me home with an antibiotic!
Healthcare in the US is terrible and way overpriced. It's the level of care you can expect in a for-profit system. I've started going to Mexico for care.
She saw a nurse practitioner not a doctor.
Agreed. Bloody stools are never normal
Ya and when she went back, the nurse practitioner thought maybe she was allergic to gluten???? Really?? Gluten caused her to bleed from the ass? The girl is suffering from digestive symptoms and you want to just tell her to start cutting foods?
Absolutely UNACCEPTABLE. How can they be that incompetent? In fact. It's more than incompetence. It's evil. It's simple apathy and evilness. I swear people are worthless.
I think you are wonderful to do these videos.
Prayers for you.
Thank you for doing this. You are a blessing.
You’re welcome 💙
Your videos were so helpful for me while my brother was going through it thanks 🙏❤️
You’re welcome. Hope he’s doing ok now, Zee 💙
Thanks for sharing this! Very important information! 💯
Glad it was helpful! 💙
Scary.
God bless you!
Wow, those stats you gave at the end are truly frightening. Thanks for sharing those.
You’re welcome.
Good Evening Maam. May the Almighty give you many more years of a HAPPY, HEALTHY, LONG and a PROSPEROUS life. Stay blessed, ALWAYS and EVERYWHERE.
Glad you're okay
This is an outstanding video which delivery done remarkable well.
Thank you so much 💙
I appreciate this honest, open, humble video.
I had colonoscopy today because of some symptoms.
Something no one talks about is that 1in 7 men is colorblind and can’t judge his own stool.
I've never thought about the color blind thing before, but you're right!
Something else no one ( I mean men mostly ) ever talks about is Penile Cancer, which I had at 54. It took 2 years to be correctly diagnosed after me pestering my GP that I just KNEW what I had was not right, which was a patch of ulcerated skin that just wouldn't heal on my togger. I knew it wasn't an STD! He gave me no end of creams to apply all with no improvement. It was raw and bled whenever I touched it, and it was getting bigger. Eventually, I insisted I see a skin specialist who sent me for a biopsy straight away. Once the biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of cancer I was sent for surgery right away within days. The first bout of butchery didn't get it all so I had to go under the knife a second time. The second time they were confident it had all been removed. Luckily I didn't have to have chemo, my oncologist suggested we see how things go before going down that route. That was 6 years ago now and all's well - best bit, I still have a togger that looks normal and works as it should. I said at the start that if it meant chopping it off, do it! but fortunately, my surgeon did a fantastic job saving my little man. My Mum had Bowel cancer twice and is a 15-year survivor now.
Jelena I love you thank you for this. You’re an angel ♥️🙏🏾
You’re welcome 💙
Thanks for sharing your story
You’re welcome 💙
Valuable info. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Love your channel those were my beginning stages no blood that I could see had my first infusion last week, only side effects so far the cold liquids glass feeling going down my throat , I’m 51 and they found mine started capecitabine fourth day just fatigue so far been able to still go to work part time. All your tips have really helped.
Best wishes to you as you go through treatment. 💙 I’m glad to hear it hasn’t been to miserable for you.
If you have no symptoms for the love of god get a second and third opinion!!!
Thank you for sharing, very very informative ♥️
You’re welcome 💙
God Bless you all. Love yall
Thank you for sharing your story. My son was diagnosed in 2019 with appendix cancer. Yes you can get it there. Your appendix is part of your colon. It is almost always found as stage 4. My son was stage 2. I'm so thankful for that. If you are ever told that you have a fecalith in your appendix request your appendix be removed ASAP.
I’m glad they found it early in your son. Hopefully he’s doing ok today.
My symptoms were...one day I had bloody diarrhea that resolved itself in a couple of hours, ten months later I had it again and it was getting worse. Both times I had no other symptoms, in fact, I felt great. That 5/20. Right hemicolectomy, Stage 3C, 12 rounds of chemo and have had NED since 1/21.
Very informative ❤
Your demeanor is lovely
Ugly in my 👀 eyes.
I'm 56. I had a colonoscopy at age 4 and enemas throughout much of my young childhood, which traumatized me, so i'm not going to have another colonoscopy in my lifetime. I was AWAKE in 1971 when i had one and vividly remember it. Instead, i recently had the Colonguard test, which came back clear.
I’m sorry about your traumas. 💙 I just did the ColoGuard and mine came back positive. 😩 So scary. Now I have to do the colonoscopy anyway. I know there is like 14% false positives with ColoGuard and it doesn’t catch like 8%. Make sure you do this every few years if you stay that route.
The bleeding should have been an immediate red flag to the practitioner. I had problems with hemorrhoids and minor bleeding and was sent for a colonoscopy straight away. Was just internal hemorrhoids and got them banded, but any bleeding should be investigated asap
Wow this video is very informative!
Thank you!
Glad you survived it ,if hadn't who tell the story x
Shocking that a "Nurse Practitioner" decides, what to do after month of bleeding ... In Germany You would instantly see a real MD and he would (hopefully(!) send You to a gastroscopic investigation... I am so sorry for You - all the best!
At the minimum, she should have been sent to a gastroenterologist. It might have been hemorrhoids.
Thank you for sharing! Hope you’re doing well. I had my colonoscopy screening a few weeks ago along with an EGD. Colonoscopy came out great! I highly recommend if people are 45 and over or have a family history to get it done.
I'm so happy to hear you got a colonoscopy! And even more so that it came out great (and hopefully means all looked good). 💙
@@SurvivorJelena Thank you! Yes, my father has long history of colon polyps so I knew it had to be done. Also, my sister is in remission for adrenal cortical carcinoma and her cancer was found incidentally during a nasty bout of diverticulitis. Luckily, they found it in time. 💚💚. And she’s doing very well. Thank you again and I hope you’re well. 💚💚
Any insight in how the probiotic and bleeding were correlated?
I feel like people slam those but I’m not so sure they’re meant to be taken with the strength and frequency that we do.
I worked as an RN in South Carolina as a travel nurse. I’ve been in every state but 2. I have never seen so many colostomies in my career as I did in SC. Diet?
Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤❤
You're welcome 💙
Hope u stay cancerfree god blessxx ❤❤
❤ big love to you and everyone in comments
Any rectal bleeding is cause for alarm. Bleeding from the Vag after meno also cause for uterine/endometrial cancer - get checked asap and do all screenings annually
Solid advice as always
Thank you 💙
About 4 years ago I read a WebMD article about younger folks getting CRC. Scary stuff. The woman's was caught in time. The man's was caught late but he survived; sadly, he will be using a ostomy bag for the rest of his life. Horrible thing.
You can't be too careful...
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
At starting I've a blood with mucus mixed, later used medication, the blood goes out and mucus comming, after that mucus is also stoppped,
But three to four times a day i need to to bathroom.. Bowel moments are changing..
Could you plz analyze my symptoms
Bonjour, merci pour cette video instructive. Très souvent le cancer colorectal est lié à notre alimentation. Trop de pesticides malheureusement 😒
I have heard successful story of changing diet leading to improvement in colorectal cancer aka shrinking in size. What is the odd that diet is the cause of your cancer?
Very good video, if you save just one person, it is a phenomenal job👍
Wonder why the sudden increase post 1990? Must be processed food?
Researchers are hopefully looking into this. There are a lot of environmental things that have changed in the past 100 years, including our food, so there is a lot to look at.
Friends, please get in there and get a colonoscopy as soon as you are old enough for your health insurance to cover it, if not sooner. The procedure is really not a big deal.
I believe many health plans will actually pay for the whole screening, with no copay. It is just that important to them, and I am sure that their actuaries have calculated the risk of having to pay for cancer treatments vs colonoscopies.
Jelena, did you ever get a CT Scan while you were having symptoms?
Did you have pain when you would pass stool? And was there bloood in your stool?
Vegetarian...carbs...the second is the more important thing.
I'm not surprised. You keep pushing insulin, you keep encouraging cell growth. Cancer cells also do fermentation, which requires glucose. Reduction is necessary.
Lost my husband to Colorectal cancer at 57, a friend at 53, the following year and another at 39.
I’m so sorry to hear this.
And my husband at 61.
hey love!
I’m not suffering from cancer as of right now. But apparently nutrient deficiency could be a result of cancer?
I’ve got chronic tonsilitis, like really really bad for decades.
No doctor wants to infere and they all say it’s normal?
but my body is not normal anymore. I pass stools perhaps 10 times a day for years and I cannot absorb calcium no matter what I do.
Please, is there anything to help?
I’ve never heard of chronic tonsillitis. I’m not a doctor, so my only suggestion would be to go on another hunt for one that will listen to you and try to help.
My son had crohns and colitis.
He was in Humira for many years. That kept both in remission, along with mesalamine.
Unfortunately, he experienced of the rare side effects. Hodgkin's lymphoma.
After treatment and being cancer free, his team of doctors started more testing to find out what could treat crohns without increasing the risk of cancer recurring.
He's experienced similar bleeding as you described. He is taking prebiotic as well. I will send him this link and suggest that he stop the prebiotic.
All of his screens have shown him to still be cancer free. The only colon signs are crohns and colitis. The colitis diagnosis was recently added.
There is a new biologic that has no cancer risk side effects. He will be starting on that.
That sounds like a good thing that he’ll be switching medications. It’s important for him to keep going in regularly for colonoscopies and hopefully it’s just his condition causing his bleeding, but he should check in with his doctor to mention it just in case.
My father was put on Humira for his arthritis. He was 68 at the time. He developed large diffuse b cell lymphoma and died at 71. I think this was due to his immune system being suppressed by the Humira. I'm glad your son had a good outcome.👍
Hi ,you look great ,how much blood was in your stool ? Great information for us all.
It wasn’t a ton, which is why I wasn’t super concerned. Probably not even a teaspoon.
I've been suffering with these symptoms for over 25 years, i paid for a CT virtual colonscopy quite a few years ago and it found nothing , i dont think it sees the small intestine very well.The worst part is fatigue comes on stronger about 10 mins after eating.Ive just been putting up with it and gave up trying to find answers, i have discomfort in my abdomen for over 25 years sometimes it's stronger some weeks more than others but never goes.
I’m sorry you’re dealing with this.
Hey I'm in the same boat and completely clear of symptoms when I follow a fiber free diet (ex carnivore), Dr Paul Mason talks about it on TH-cam.
Find anew dr
You need video capsule colonoscopy
Have you ever looked into dumping syndrome or rapid gastric emptying. I have the same symptoms as you but when I eat to much carbs or sugar my farts are terrible and long and smell horrible, so embarrassing. Plus sometimes when I fart I poop a little or pee a little. Im still being checked for other stuff but so far they found the dumping syndrome and liver disease, I have an endoscopy coming up.
How were you healed?
4 years ago I had my first colonoscopy and one 3mm benign polyp was removed. I would be insisting on one if I had any unusual symptoms at all that lasted more than a couple weeks.
Hola! Y tenías sangrado en las heces ????
Gracias
In 2006 I had just finished my AA and was going to go live on campus at University. The entire summer I was bleeding and even my dad who was a doctor kept saying it would stop. I moved on campus anyways. I became anemic and passed out in Golf Class around Halloween. I drove my self to the hospital and they found a tumor the size of an orange.
Oh my gosh! I’m glad to see you’re still here today!
Hello @survivorjelena mam,
My mother has Iron deficiency anemia and her anemia does not get to normal with iron supplements . We did a ct scan abdomen and it shoeed nothing in colon.. is it sufficient?
I’m not sure how small of polyps can show up on a CT scan but larger tumors would definitely show up, especially if the cancer had spread.
Hi. ❤️. Love your channel. Have a quick question. I just went through rectal cancer treatment. I had very low recital cancer. 3 cm from anal verge. Being ultra low my original surgeon recommended a permanent colostomy. Not wanting they I got 4 more opinions and found a surgeon who did a great job removing the cancer without permanent stoma. I had a temp loop ilieostomy for
3 months and just 3 days ago had the reversal surgery. I watched your video on your experience the first day after and I went through the same toilet ordeal! Now a few days removed the diarrhea has subsided but now I can’t control when I go and have had numerous accidents 😞.
I’m wearing an adult diaper throughout the day as I don’t have time to get to the bathroom if I happen to go out. My dr says I will have a lot of urgency especially in the beginning.
My question is When did your urgency get better ( if at all) , is their a certain diet you have found that works best?,, is there exercises you have done to help with that part of the body,
I can’t remember how low your cancer was?
I really appreciate the help in advance as I’m really nervous about this long term as I can’t see myself living like this forever. The ilieostomy was no picnic 🧺 but at least it was manageable. Thank you 🙏 I’m advance!
Just want to know if there’s light at the end of this👍
Regards
Steve H
Congrats on making it through treatment and getting your ileostomy reversed!🥳 The urgency improved with time, a low-residue diet, then adding in psyllium husk after a few weeks. After 2 weeks was when I started to see improvement and didn't have to rush to the bathroom as soon as I stood up, so hang in there.
CHANGE your eating habits, lot's of books, info on line! Our guts are not a garbage dump!!!!!!
@@angelfirelite change your eating habits? Lol.. yeah how about eating whole grains right? Fruit veggies? Except there all tainted with pesticides. Eat salmon? Sure except farm raised and fresh water both have pollutants. Chicken is pumped full of antibiotics. Name me some thing and I guarantee its not as safe as you think
what was your diet ?
What are the Symtoms ?
What were you used to eat a lot before getting the cancer?
I wonder if there's something in our modern diets that makes this type of cancer more probable than in the past? Completely guessing here but I bet artificial sweeteners and some other chemicals are present in our food now that weren't there before.
WHY do I keep getting these kind of recommendations? It makes me so anxious!
I do too
Cancer free 23 years. -started bleeding when I discovered i had a malignant 8 cm tumor. Treated with radiation and cisplatin no surgery
Congratulations on among it 23 years! 👏🏼
❤❤❤ to all of you
Artifical sweeteners?
Why did probiotic increase bleeding?
Had my reversal yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!!
🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Hi Brandon! Good to hear from you! Congrats on your reversal 🎉 I hope you’re back home soon 🤞🏼💙
@@SurvivorJelena thx the Dr said maybe tomorrow💙💙💙
I found out yesterday that some of the tissue that the surgeon removed from around my stoma during the reversal was sent to pathology and it came back with a very small group of adenocarcinoma so I get have some more chemo not too clear on length but I'm not getting oxaliplatin this round he wants to get some genetics to determine the new drug 5fu is happening
It was a very small group of cells believed to be from my 1st surgery too small too see on scan💙💙
Hope you are well and 😊
Oh, man, that sucks Brandon. I hope that after a few more rounds of chemo all the cancer will be gone for good🤞🏼💙
I am struggling. ..have lost weight the last year.. 6kg. Have had more frequent diarrea the last year.. then 12 qeeks ago bloatiness major gas. Abdominal pain and back pain.. weird symptoms indicating poor cirkulation in feet.. i have struggled with stess the last with divorce with kids involved.. my stool shows signs of indigestion and occasionally a fat stool. I had my blood checked on the 24/4 this spring.. nothing came up.. a ct skan showed nothing at the gallbladder or pancreas. A small lowattentiating area on the liver and a small cyst like strukture on the bottom of the left kidney.. i feel of.. weird muscle aches att times.. i am worried that the things on my liver and kidney are initial secondary tumors and the main tumor is hiding somewhere.. apparently 1/3 of pancreatic cancers are misssed on imaging. ..
God Bless
Ulcerative colitis was extremely similar symptoms too.
Yes, it is! That’s why it’s so important to get checked out by a doctor if you’re having these symptoms because that’s the only way to tell what exactly is causing them.
My baby had these symptoms for months. He got diagnosed with ulcerative colitis at 22 months old. I was terrified it was cancer.
