WHAT’S BEHIND THE RISE IN COLON CANCER AMONG YOUNG PEOPLE?
The studies and statistics that refer to
colon
cancer
normally address not just the
colon
, but the entire colorectal system.

colon cancer/scalp cancer link?
I read via google that
colon
cancer
sometimes spreads to the scalp. Has anyone heard of or can confirm this? Reason I ask, I am awaiting scheduling for my colonoscopy (I'm in the USA, minimum 4-6 weeks wait to book an appointment).

Varying results on FIT tests
Would it be common in
colon
cancer
for a FIT test to only be positive some of the time? And, if yes, how can it be regarded as something helpful to do once a year? If I had done one test (like most people) this week it would have been negative.

Acute stress reaction
Hi, My sibling was recently diagnosed with
colon
cancer
. Adding to that I have to have a colonoscopy to be screened but am now having symptoms myself. I go this week for it but am struggling with anxiety right now.

Precancerous polyps removed, new symptoms 8 years later
I don't have health insurance anymore so I guess I'm wondering if this is indicative of or a symptom of potential
colon
cancer
or polyps? Obviously based on my history I should have a colonoscopy. But without health insurance it isn't as easy as that.

Lower Right Abdominal Pain
So, I am confused about what to do & what it is, is a CT scan with contrast enough to rule out
Colon
cancer
? , I am considering getting a colonoscopy to be sure 100% and maybe undetected polyps could be removed.

Liver detox after chemo?
I am starting Taxotere next week and received some advice from a friend fighting serious
colon
cancer
. He told me how he detoxed his liver after each cycle. He used TUDCA Bile salts and PectaSol from ECONugenics Company. https://econugenics.com/collections/pectasol?

More anxiety
I've found myself down the rabbit hole again about
colon
cancer
. I've just turned 29, I'm female. It all started when I was consuming a lot of omelette for breakfast that had cooked spinach, chicken and feta cheese inside it.

TERRIFIED I may have colon cancer
Hey guys. After ready many posts here I thought I’d share. I’m 32, and I’ve been having blood in my stool for a couple of months now. I chalked it up to straining too hard. But a few days ago, when I wiped there was blood on the tissue and I knew something wasn’t right. Now, I’m experiencing low stomach

My 80 year-old dad with MPCa, broke his leg and now seems to be giving up. Advice on best anti-anxiety meds desperately needed.
He has watched several close family members die difficult deaths from lung, stomach, and
colon
cancer
. I know he has those images in his mind. I have them in mine. I do want to help blot them out for him I will be returning to England ASAP to help him to his journey’s ends.

Is this a sign of

positive occult blood test but no parasites ?
Now I'm really worried I might have

cancer
. Thoughts? I'm pretty scared... (I will be seeing my dr next week to discuss the lab test results.). .......... I am going to try to somehow add a photo to my post. Edited to add: was very mucus(y) and gas was very smelly.
