Good evening.
I suffer horribly with anxiety and take note of every symptom I get and automatically think cancer now my new fear has been bowel cancer, I'm 26, don't have any risk factors id say I'm pretty healthy and I've had no family history of cancer so it's quite rare I know but not impossible and I've heard it's on the rise in young adults
these are the symptoms ive managed to note down over the past few weeks:
Rashes that come and go on neck
Hives
Mucus in stool on couple occasions
Last week stomach pain followed by diarrhoea after eating McDonald’s and milkshake all relieved shortly after bout of diarrhoea
Mild Stomach discomfort for a short while after eating
Mushy stool
Twinges/Aches in legs and back
Undigested vegetables in stool
sinus issues
now I'm not saying everyone is related these are just the symptoms ive experienced in general it's the on/off mushy stool that scares me, I'd really like to think it's just IBS but after doing my research I've seen it's more likely to be severe and all the time my symptoms come and go and I seen a article saying bowel cancer causes symptoms that come and go really scared right now so any advice welcome! Thank you
