Colonoscopy should be offered to everyone starting at age 30, not 45. To get a colonoscopy before 45 you have to have a family history…yet it has been shown that 80% of people age 19 to 44 who are diagnosed with colorectal cancer have no known family history. They need to stop putting up barriers that can end up being a death sentence for some of these people. It’s wrong.

I think I have rectal cancer but the Drs aren't listening to me! I was told I had pelvic floor, I went to therapy and it did not help. Severe constipation, pain to the right of the tailbone, rectal pain, pelvic pain, low back pain, now pain spread to groin, vaginal and down the legs. Finally an MRI has come back showing rectal wall thickening, but they are still not taking this seriously. Pelvic floor dysfunction does not cause all of this! I'm on my 3rd colorectal surgeon. I am getting sicker every day. What am I supposed to do to get help?

Hello everyone. I'm a 27 Y/O veteran/fire fighter and I eat very healthy, lift weights and run on the regular. 2 weeks ago I woke up in the morning and I could not poop. Then the stool finally started coming out but they look like ribbons. Like a gift wrapper ribbon. Constipation and ribbon-like stools. Opened Google on my phone and Ended up going to the ER where they did blood tests, rectal digital examination, and CT-scan with dye. THEY FOUND NOTHING, and the doctor even pointed out I did not even have stools backed up, with the radiologist saying not a spec inside my body and bowels looked out of the ordinary. Its been 8 days since that, and now I'm also seeing white mucus (no blood) on my stools, with 2-3 small ribbon BM a day, with two small soft lumps on the outside of my anal cavity that inflate when I push (Hemorrhoids, I'm guessing?) PLEASE HELP. I am worried sick and cannot sleep at night with the urge to poop and anxiety. please someone.

I normally do not worry about stuff like this but I've been down the Reddit rabbit hole many a night and I just cannot seem to know what is happening. Gastroenterologist appointment is in a whole 15 days from now, and I am worried my condition will deteriorate.
