There are so many other things it could more likely be and not something nasty like cancer although its the first thing we think of ,I thought the same after having a positive fit test and lots of other symptoms like a elevated CA125 blood test and unexplained weight loss I convinced myself it was cancer I was sent for a colonoscopy I was so scared but thankfully they only found a polyp fibroids and diverticulitis they took a biopsy but it was fine so I know its easy to start thinking negative thoughts but chances are he'll be fine try not to worry .

thank you for the reply and it's put my mind at ease a bit 

i should also stay off google but having bad anxiety i worry anyways

feel a bit silly posting it now but sitting alone at night my mind was working over time

ps he does have a polyp that had shown a couple of years ago when he had his stoma operation and glad that you are ok too 

You sound like me when I was waiting I think I was worse ,my mind went into overdrive after reading things I actually bought a couple of books on what to eat and how to beat cancer just while I was waiting to go for the colonoscopy I wanted to be prepared ,the only person I told was my hubby no one else knew I'm glad now I didn't worry anyone ,I know a lot more now than I did in September ,let us know how he gets on if you feel like it .

hi jenny , that's the thing is keeping it to ourselves at the moment so i can't talk about it with anyone so it's been a help coming on here 

i'm staying away from google it's made me worse to say the least 

i just feel so helpless for him when i see the worry on his face and sometimes don't know what to say at times 

i will update when we know what it is and thanks again xx
