Hi 

I never worry about my health and I’m not one to go to the doctors unless I’m very unwell….

however I’m experiencing multiple cancer symptoms. 
im messaging here first as I’d rather not tell my mum and dad as I do not want them to be worry.

i just need some help/ advice.

    it’s best to see your Go if you are worried nobody here can diagnose 

    it’s good to chat hete if we can help but we can’t advise on the symptoms you are having 

    good luck xx 

  • Hello Loz77 and thanks for posting

    I am sorry you are worried about your health.

    Symptoms can be caused by lots of different things and in most cases won't be the result of a cancer.

    You haven't said what symptoms you have but as you are concerned and writing on a cancer forum I really do suggest you speak to your mum and dad about this.

    If needed they can arrange an appointment with your GP to get checked out.

    No one here can diagnose anyone but if people have symptoms that aren't going away or are getting worse they should get them checked out, just to be sure.

    Do remember cancer is rare in young people, but do speak with your mum and dad soon about this. They will want to know and may be able to put your mind at ease or if needed book to see a doctor.

    Best wishes
