My mum is 81 and has had bad chronic diahorrea for the last month. She had a positive fit test and is going to have a sigmoidoscopy on Friday and then a ct scan.
The diarrhoea is relentless and she has no control over it. I'm so scared this is cancer.

Pb, there's lots of reasons for chronic diarrhea. Don't be thinking the worst as your mum will realise your concerns. x

^^^^This is very true. My mother has bad diarrhoea and hers is caused by diverticulitis.
