      I have not been diagnosed yet, The CT with contrast was clear, my blood work showed normal levels. Waiting for my colonoscopy to confirm one way or another. My issue now is just slight mid left abdominal pain that comes and goes and sometimes is uncomfortable when I try to sleep on my side. I 2as just looking to see if anyone on the forum had any experiences with simular symptoms before being diagnosed positivre.

      The only way to alI've your stress and give you some piece of mind is to get to your doctor to examine you and get some conclusive tests going. Don't let your mind fast forward to something bad until you know for sure.

      It could be some sort of infection but not cancer. Seeing your doctor is a good first step.

    hey there you shouldn't be worrying if you have not been diagnosed with CA and ur CAT scan with contrast was clear and blood works aswell then you shouldn't worry 

    in cancer there will be abnormal level of platelets and white blood cells but as far as you're saying they are normal ( if these tests were done ) second diagnosing CA has an approach like family history and age if you're above 50 and have a family member with CA 

    other than that it may just be as simple as bowel irritation when the bowel gets irritated it presses against the lungs causing shortness of breath sometimes 

    having diarrhea can be as simple as an infection or irritable bowel 

    so put you're mind in peace visit and listen to your doctor raise all your concerns and do all you're tests and typing your symptoms in google is not the right thing to do
