Hello everyone
So Chadwick Boseman’s death has me concerned about colon cancer. I know younger people have been getting it in recent years but his death was shock to me.
I suspect I have IBS because I have odd BM’s that is usually triggered by coffee or some other food. I don’t consume artificial sweetener because it destroys my stomach. Also some days I will have bad gas then some days I have trapped wind. No blood in the stool though
I has my annual physical a couple weeks ago and all of my tests were normal. My blood cell count and liver enzymes were all good. My last several physicals have been normal.
Now I know I have likely don’t have it but this always lingers in the back of my mind.
should I ask my doctor about this or just leave it to be.
I am 29 and probably too young for a colonoscopy without having any major symptoms.
