tl;dr: “Listen to your body. If you see things like blood, if you feel pain in unusual places in your abdomen, your body, tell your family. Talk to your doctor. Have the examination.”
Exactly. And don’t let embarrassment stop you from discussing this with your doctor, and don’t underplay your symptoms. I had years of symptoms before they got bad enough for me to be honest with my doctor, and once I was, he scheduled me for a colonoscopy immediately. There was a 1.5” tumour. I was in my 30s and cancer never crossed my mind.

After you have the examination and they say it’s nothing, don’t belive them and continue to examine it until you get a doctor that cares
