My husbands had different cancers. The first one had prostate cancer (well I can't get that one), the second thought he had PC but in the end it turned out to be cancer of the bile duct. Not that common, they thought it was caused by his job as an industrial chemist, several colleages died of the same thing. In the days he was working there wasn't much health and safety and he said they worked in a chemical soup. The third one had bladder cancer, they were treating it and he was doing well, then they discovered prostate cancer and weren't sure which came first. He ended up with lung cancer and that killed him. (never smoked in his life).
I've had a few good days stools normal but a little knobbly, I thought that might be the after effect of the diarrhea, and didn't worry, but today I had the same and 30 minutes later diarrhea. Now I'm thinking the knobbly stools were constipation and then followed by diarrhea is alternating that means the worst. I was diagnosed with IBS 30 odd years ago, but that was mainly terrible stomach cramps which have been better in later years.
My son is back and I am going to do the stool test, but am feeling no hope again.
Anyone had alternating constipation and diarrhea and its only been IBS or something.
