Could it be bowel cancer

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi I am 72 years old and had my gallbladder removed 2 years ago. Have never really been rid of the pain in in the gallbladder area. the pain has now spread to the rest of my abdomen well more like a strong ache really. no blood in stools but bowel movements can be a bit iffy, sometimes loose, sometimes constipated and sometimes normal. Scared to go to drs in case it is cancer. Does anyone have similar symptoms?
