Anxiety About Colon Cancer Posted: 10-10-05 22:37pm
My girlfriend seems at risk to colon
cancer and has been having some unusual
problems lately. Her mother died from
colon cancer when my girlfriend was very
young. The problems she has been
experiencing have all happened within the
past week. It started with slightly
bloody stools, and she has had a pain in
the left side of her abdomen directly
between her rib cage and pelvic bone.
She has had this pain for a week basically
since she told me about her bloody stools.
Yesterday when we were having sex she
told me that when I touched a spot inside
her vagina she was having the pain flare
up in the same spot on the left side of
her abdomen. We have arranged a doctor's
appointment, but I wanted to see if I
could relieve some of my anxiety about
this.
