Worried!!
Hello! I am almost 56 years old! I took a Cologuard test three years ago and it was negative. I took one a couple of weeks ago and it was positive. I have been looking at the symptoms for colon cancer and the only possibility I see would be an increase in bowel movements. I would say that I used to

blood when wiping
I am 51 M. I have been having rectal bleeding for 6 months that looks like this. Sometimes slightly more. Does this look like fresh or old blood. I went to GP and they said they don’t feel an internal hemorrhoid or see a fissure. Does this look like bleeding from colon cancer. I am scared to death

blood in stool with mild rectal pressure
for the last several weeks I’ve had some blood with bowel movements especially after straining. I’ve had some pressure feeling in my rectum off and on. I have horrible health anxiety and fear the worst. I had an mri of my pelvis last year and nothing showed up. Would a tumor in my rectum or lower colon

Personal Sleep PR
This is the first time I have passed 8 hours of sleep in the almost 8 years of keeping track. I usually score 80 or 81. 89 is an all time record for me. So what happened. First off, I could feel my RLS earlier in the evening. Little things were beginning to trigger my RLS, nothing strong but

Small Bowel Obstruction
Hi all, just curious if anyone else has been diagnosed with a small
bowel
obstruction
(SBO) from adhesions as a result of their transplant? I'm almost 5 years post-SPK transplant and have had about 11 hospital admissions for SBO in the last 3 years.

Turmeric ginger and black pepper
Anyone taken this as a capsule or the natural ingredients I've read quite a bit about these ingredients and they seem to possibly help with copd symptoms. Could anyone enlighten me whether its worth buying the manufactured capsules please ? X

Colon cancer secondary to CLL
I had posted that I was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer and I’ve since had the mass successfully removed. Out of 16 lymph nodes analyzed 1 had cancer. So it’s off to chemo therapy in two weeks. For three months. Is there anyone in the group who’s experiencing this ? And does anyone have experience

small bowel blockage
I was admitted as an emergency for
bowel
obstruction
. It was so painful. Investigation showed scar tissue adhesions from my initial operations. Thought I’d share this important advice: It began with constipation and like the majority of people I took laxatives. No!

worried I have a Colon Cancer
hi there, I am a 25 year old male - been pretty active my whole life. as of late my stools have been quite soft and thin (see picture above) I will say my diet has been absolutely terrible and some days I don’t get enough fiber for sure. But the other day I had a slight bit of red blood when I wiped

Guidance for RLS
Hi Everyone, I'm new to this forum and am so glad to have found you. I have suffered with RLS for years, and in the past year, it's become pretty severe. I get VERY little sleep. Currently, I'm taking Gabapentin and Magnesium Glycinate, but neither are helping--yet. I did take Carbidopa-Levodopa for

Dave Barry: A journey into my colon - and yours
A plagiarised version of an article by Dave Barry, published in the Miami Herald in 2008, appeared in one of my newsfeeds recently. I thought I'd share it here, as the message for 50-74 year-olds: [i]
screen yourself for colorectal cancer
[/i], is as relevant today as it was fifteen years ago.

Colon cancer as secondary cancer
Hi I just got diagnosed with colon cancer last week and I am lucky I will have the operation to remove it on Tuesday - a very good Kaiser surgeon got me in quickly. It's not clear if it has advanced - I hope not- so we will see. I had a CT scan for the CLL in March when they saw something in the colon

Preparing myself for a full hysterectomy, bowel resection and stents in bladder......
Has anyone been through this or similar? I'm desperate for support and I'm terrified about this operation. I have been given a 50% chance of a better quality of life. It's a lot to go through for those stats.....

Tortuous colon
At my last colonoscopy (at age 60) the doc told me, upon awakening, that I had a "tortuous" colon. This was a surprise to me as I've had 3 or 4 previous colonoscopies in my life and have never been told that before. I have suffered with bloat, discomfort, gas, and other issues throughout my life, though

"Very low risk" of colon cancer, so surveillance is unnecessary?
Yesterday arrived a letter from my local NHS Hospital Trust. I get them quite often, and as it happens I was anticipating an appointment with a physio about now. But no, this one was more of a "dis-appointment". A letter from the Department of Colorectal Surgery was overdue, I thought, but as you can
