Hi everyone I hope you are well. I've got into my head that I have bowel cancer . Around August 2016 I went too the doctors with pain on abdomen and all over and they prescribed omoprazple . My sore abdomen disappeared until Nov/Dec time 2016 where I gave around a week bout of sore tummy and abdomen along with a sore back but they it went away and fast forward Jan 17 my sore abdomen has been away for all of January but has appeared back the last few days. I have small spots of blood on the surface of my stool but only happened a few times and the doctor has felt my tummy and abdomen on numerous occasions and didn't find any lumps or anything . The doctor did a stool test for H.Plyori but came back negative . Will get blood results end of this week and I've not lost any weight also. I just don't know what's going on. Any help would be great thank you .

    You may not necessarily have b.c.-it could be something else.

    Wait until you get your blood results-if you are not happy with them -ask for a Colonosocopy (if your doc thinks it's necessary)!

    Regards

      Thanks Susan . I had trouble with my stomach years ago with pain about 5-6 years ago. I had an endoscopy and colonoscopy and everything was clear .

      Would just abdomen and stomach pain be a symptoms of BC without anything else ?

      As I'm not a doctor I can only speak from experience-I wouldn't like to guess what is wrong with you-

      Wait for results is all I can say.
