Really Bad Pain! Why Sigmodoscopy? Could It Be Colon Cancer? Posted: 02-05-06 06:15am
Hi everyone, can anyone help me, my sister
had really bad pain, so bad in her stomuch
that they took her to hospital and she
stayed in for a couple of days, where they
were doing blood tests etc. She came out
and with pain killers it gradually got
better and went. One month later she had
to go back for more tests, scans etc.
They now tell her she needs to come back
in 2 weeks for a sigmodoscopy and a
barium enema. She is worried sick, can
anyone tell me if it sounds like colon
cancer? As anyone else had this, and
eventually it was colon cancer. Our mum
had it at 35 years and died so we are high
risk. She had really bad constipation and
sickness. She ate alot of red meat, and
tomatoes/bananas, which they say now can
help cause it. She did not smoke and was
only slightly over weight. :roll:
