Can anybody advise im scared

[LouiseAndy]

I had worries just like this! I posted about it recently! It turns out I did have gallstones- that I manged to pass before the ultrasound! I'm sure you're going to told you have a issue like gallstones. I know it's hard but you need to trust in the doctor, I've found with all the doctors I've seen they are totally straight with you. Like with what they think it may be!

Just try to keep your mind off it- easier said then done I know! I have issues trying to keep my mind off it myself at the best of times.

Hi. I've been diagnosed with sibo. And lately I've been noticing lighter stools as well as diarrhea. The diarrhea is a symptom of sibo, as well as currently using xifaxan antibiotics. Hopefully it subsides when I'm finished with the antibiotics. I feel your fear though. I google some sibo symptoms and of course PC comes up. I woke up at 2am to pee and my front shins were itchy, so I google itching, and of course the bad stuff came up. It's not severe, or constant itching but still. Hopefully your stool is better by now. Good luck.

You have no red flags for PC. You don't need any more tests. What makes you think you can't trust the drs?

It could be your anxiety. Diarrreah IS a symptom of anxiety; in fact I believe it is among the most common physical symptoms created by anxiety. You know the old expression he was so scared he s*it his own pants?
That expression is no coincidence.
I dont know why it is so but I guess it is because the bowel muscles tightens so much when we are scared that what we digested runs right through out system.

This thread started in June. This type of cancer is relentless and in the two months since this started, if there was something sinister going on, you'd be quite ill. Your doctor is practicing CYA medicine. Let us know how you make out.
