Fatty Liver and Colorectal Cancer?

I have a flexi sigmoidoscopy scheduled in 4 days. I have had issues with my bowels for many years. I am either constipated or have diarrhea all the time. A few years ago I had external hemorroides removed and they are back; so when I went to see the doctor for blood in my stool, mucus, dripping blood in the toilet, feel the need to defecate but I can't, gassy, however, my symptoms were dismissed as hemorroides.

I had blood test done for a new pcp and my results were crazy! Anemia, fatty liver (later diagnosed through ultrasound and CT scan), maybe diabetes, don't see the doctor for that until I go for my flexi. And since the CT and ultrasound happened at the ER due to abdominal pain, I don't know what else they saw until I see my doctor.

Liver enzymes are high. I'm a mess. My stools look like ribbons, they are pretty flat, and I am very worried about the whole thing. The flexi I'm having because at least one doctor didn't care about my age.

I use the VA hospital and it takes a while to get seen, so I try to distract myself. I also have arthritis on my back, but because I'm 39, doctors tell me I'm too young for this or that; until I insist with the testing and they realize I'm not well.

Anyone has had non-alcoholic fatty liver due to colorectal cancer?
