So, here goes. It started the Tuesday before last when I began feeling a slight, sharp pain near the bottom of my breastbone on the left hand side. I tried to ignore it, but it wouldn't go away. It wasn't continuous and would only happen a few times a day but I would notice every time it happened. That was the only symptom I was feeling until Friday when I had a terrible bowel movement. My poop (sorry, it's about to get quite personal) was a mustard color and very mushy. I left work early because I wasn't feeling well.
That night, I did not feel well. By abdomen started to ping with aches and my back began to hurt. I was coming down with a fever and found out on Saturday that I had the flu. I had a cough and a stuffy nose. By this time, I began having diarrhea, a yellow oily color. Sunday was more or less the same, except my flu symptoms began improving.
Come Monday, my flu symptoms were almost non existent but my stomach issues were still there. I alternated between yellow, oily diarrhea and the yellow mustard mush. My diet the whole weekend was soup and turkey sandwiches, so doodling think it was the food I was eating. Tuesday the flu symptoms were gone but my stomach problems were still there, still yellow and still either completely water or a mushy mess.
Today, Wednesday, during work I had two terrible bowel movements. The first were small solid-ish pieces but they were not yellow. They weren't brown either, they were awfully light. Not exactly white or gray but I would say someway halfway between that and yellow. The second one was a yellow, frothy liquid. This evening has been yellow meshes that floated and the toilet looked a bit oily.
I'm freaking it because all these signs point towards pancreatic cancer. My stomach pains have become almost non existent for the past few days (extremely mild if any) and instead there have been times of intense stomach gurgling. My backf pains are still here, they seem worse when I am sitting and are rarely there when standing or moving around. My biggest problem are my bowel movements because of there color and consistency ( yellow water or yellow mush). I'm a wreck, I can't concentrate or pay attending without worrying about PC.
I have an appointment with a gastro in two weeks (earliest I could get) but I know my mind would settle between now and then. Am I just freaking out? Are these signs pointing towards PC or something else? Idk, I just want this to stop :weep: any help would be much appreciated.
