I realise you're scared - I would be too - but you need to take the diazepam and get the tests done. They can also sedate you for the tests. Whatever the problem is will be better dealt with sooner rather than later so please don't delay.

I had same and had generalised inflammation and markers elevated also blood in the stool, camera showed lots of polyps but not CA so try not to worry hope you will be the same, unlikely to have metastasis in bowel from BC ,not its usual progression to bowel good luck :)

Me to, tumour markers are present with Pre-cancerous polyps, had my polyps removed and tested, came back nothing to worry about. You must have your tests done, prevention is everything.I wish you lots of luck.
