Can you pass this info to the doctors who swear you are too young for every ailment that’s out there being found in younger generations more and more? Greatly appreciated.
YESSSSS! Doctors a good amount of times will ignore diagnoses based on age when other diagnoses have been ruled out after tests. What’s more frustrating is when doctors don’t test for certain conditions bc of age rule outs
@@garabaush right ? Seems ridiculous. Doesn't matter if it's rare for the age group . It can still happen to anybody at anytime and they should take 100% seriously.
Understand that there is a cost benefit ratio that must be considered. Colonoscopies carry its own risks and if the risk of complications is higher than your risk of colon cancer, than screening is not appropriate. This is to be said for any kind of medical procedure/treatment
@@weirdo-gj5xz true ✅
@@weirdo-gj5xz you are correct in say that some diagnostic procedures do carry their own level of risks to the human body, but some diagnostic methods such as blood tests are negligibly very low in health risks. Yes, this video is about colorectal cancers, but this comment thread is about general diagnoses. You make a very good point concerning the risks of diagnostic procedures in potentially diagnosing colon cancers, so what you said there is very pertinent to this video and the factual based viewpoint you bring up.
I was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer in 2019. I had abdominal pain etc. I had chemo, surgery and more chemo. I have been cancer free for 4 yrs.
I'm so happy to hear you're cancer free 🎉
@@blueseptember2174 Thank you!
Are you sure? Stage 4 is generally considered inoperative.
@tthomas stage 4 is not considered inoperative. I had 20% of my colon removed of where the cancer was.
@@eileenbunton6658 stage 4 means it's spread to other organs, which is why it's inoperative. You probably were 3.
igrotum makes me grateful beyond words. Its a ray of hope for cancer patients like me.
It doesn't really matter how many symptoms you know about when it takes months to get a simple doctor's appointment and many, many appointments before anyone takes you seriously or gives a crap.
Try virtual care. Understand and ask questions about your lab values
Hey whoa-you found one who gives a crap?
Thats*
Right!
@tau-mw4tk haha! You get bloodwork/labs done? As a 45 year old woman, the only doctors appointments that ive ever had my blood work checked were during pregnancy. I have never had a gp that routinely did this.
Many ingredients allowed in processed foods in the United States are banned in other countries. If you want to be healthy, eat the same foods your grandma or great grandma ate.
ROFL when preservatives were even worse
@@conman1395 My grand parents lived to 95 and they ate organic foods, just dont buy processed foods
@@sew_gal7340 that's what I was referring too... obviously conman doesn't understand what I was saying though
What if they 6 feet under at 80 years old 💀
They ate McDonald’s and Taco Bell. Got it. Thanks!!
I got a screening at the age of 32. No polyps or cancer. Unpleasantness for 2 days is worth more than a lifetime of pain.
You are one of the fortunate ones. They don't typically screen unless you have a close family history or severe symptoms... and even then they'll often chalk up to nothing. The doctors won't order it so insurance won't pay so you can't have it done.
what kind of screening?
I was polyp free at 65 and then began feeling really tired around 68. I had iron infusions for 3 years which didn't help much so the hematologist said yu have a leak. I just had a colonoscopy last week and the doc removed a very large polyp from the cecum. She said I had been losing blood from that, making me extremely iron deficient. Also it was pre cancerous cells. My father had colon cancer but survived 5 years from Chemo and surgery. I am so lucky my iron was very low and they searched for the reason. In another year it might have been cancer.
Being polyp free at 32 is fine, so was I! I was polyp free at 65 too. By 74 I had a large one blocking my colon and making me iron deficient. I could hardly function. Keep getting checked. The polyps come later in life.
Rest in peace to my mom who passed from stage 4 colon cancer in 2020. That decline was something else to witness firsthand. She told my siblings & I to get checked in our 30s
I'm so sorry for your loss
@tiareelaster9394 appreciate you!
Did you have any luck finding a dr to listen to you.

sorry what happened to you.
question: im jn my 30s and i might have colon cancer
How come what people are eating and how it may relate to colon cancer isn't a primary topic in the discussion of colon cancer? We're talking about the end of the DIGESTIVE tract so you'd think food is the first thing we'd look at, especially with so many poisons being sold to people in supermarkets as "food."
So true
No one wants to upset the sugar and processed foods industry. There are billions at stake and no one wants to suffer the ire of those industries and the politicians who back them. Americans are trained to eat processed foods from infancy. Gerber baby food is just blended boiled vegetables. There is no need for all those added ingredients. But busy Americans have no time to make these whole foods for their kids. Gotta work, work, work for those corporations.
I’ve seen at least one study linking childhood cancer with consumption of hot dogs. Processed meats are one of the bigger issues, along with micro plastics and massive overconsumption of sugar
lobbyists for the processed food companies are tied to the groups that are supposed to be doing this. We're on our own.
Big junk food is a multi billion dollar industry, that's why no-one's talking about it.
I think the real thing researchers should be looking into is why these cases are going up so that people can be proactive about their health before it gets to this point
To do that, one would have to know the cause(s) of colon cancer. Diet seems to be somehow related at least in a number of cases and people are obese gluttons now.
It's pretty obvious it's food. How food is prepared, processed, and cooked is where the carcinogens come from. Look at how high cancer is in dogs. Look at what u feed them. Dog food isn't a normal thing. People have only been doing that for like 50years
Diet!!! My generation (and younger) obsession with eating out so much at restaurants, being foodies, being sedentary because of binge watching shows and playing games or being on the computer all day is going to come back and bite us big time. I’m going to see a gastro this week to ask for a colonoscopy because I have half these symptoms and other colon cancer symptoms. The rates will probably keep going up.
it's the big macs
@@stop08ithow are you doing these days. Did you get the colonoscopy?
I was diagnosed in November 2020. Yep right in the middle of the freaking pandemic and it sucked. None of my family was allowed to sit with me during my chemotherapy treatments. The day I rang the bell the nurses recorded it for me on my iPhone and I was able to text it out. However little did I know my family the entire time was planning a surprise party. The day after I took my last chemo pill I got my hair done and wore a colon cancer survivor shirt and headed to my family office. My mom told me that they had to pick up something so she told me head to back. I walked in there I saw my cousins my brother and sister-in-law and their kids. The entire room was lit up with lights and had a balloon drop with colors that represent colon cancer. They even had a bell for me to ring. My mom had me save my last bottle of chemo pills. After I rang the bell for my family I threw away that chemo bottle. I never want to see another chemo bottle again.
Diagnosed this week 😢

@kayespeakman4438 how are you going? And what stage were you diagnosed?
Agreed. No point knowing symptoms because Dr's don't take you seriously. Think you're too young or hypochondriac. My Dr only does telephone consultations. They are trained sheep's to sell medicine and only listen when it's too late. It would be very refreshing if they used their initiative and an investigative approach to catch things early.
Just blatant right !!!! 👍👍👍😬
Find another Dr.
Couldn't you lie slightly to get them more worried?
People need to pay attention and start getting colonoscopys in their 30s. I was 43 when I found out that I was stage 3 with Colon Cancer, and this past December my doctor declared me in full remission.
@Ray back 6 years ago, I never knew what symptoms to look for because I had a severe case of diverticulitis! I was in the hospital for a month, and the doctors didn't look for colon cancer. I had an illostomy done, and when I went to see if I was healed enough to have a reversal done. That's when the tumor that was the size of a baseball was discovered.
Congratulations! 🙏
Insurance companies won’t allow you to get colonoscopies until you’re 55. Half the time you can have all the signs and symptoms, and you have to go through every other testing before insurance companies will approve a colonoscopy. Thank you America.
@Deo33 I didn't need to go through my insurance or wait until I was 55. I was 42 and in a hospital for a month. After an illostomy, I found out that I had stage 3 colon cancer. So, there are extenuating cases.
My son is thirty just found out they say stage four😰
Sadly even when doctors do take people seriously insurance companies would rather you suffer than encourage preventative care that will cost them and you less overtime by catching whatever it is early rather than late. The guidelines should be updated and it should be based on symptoms so less doctors are hesitant or less of them will flat out refuse to consider something outside of a person’s age. People have to be their own advocate. Keep going to doctor to doctor until someone takes you seriously. It may cost a pretty penny before then or for the medical testing but that’s what it sadly will take. Better to be annoying and wrong about the problem than quiet and right but now the disease has progressed. Sometimes the issue is what you think it is and sometimes it’s not. WebMD is a guide but it’s not a replacement for a doctor visit or urgent care.
Sounds like a lovely class lawsuit in the future for the many young adults now that were denied preventative screening.
@@TA-np4mc The insurance industry rarely denies pts. any procedure they just deny PAYMENT. That's why they aren't sued out of existence.

It takes months (8 to be exact) to get into see a dermatologist.. the constant battles people have to go through when it comes to doctors, insurance, etc is horrendous. A death sentence is quicker than the healthcare that this country has to offer.
You've hit the bulls'eye
Dermatologist? Why aren’t you seeing a gastroenterologist?
That's why we need Medicare for all in the USA. If you agree, did you VOTE for it?

I’m 23 and I have all of these symptoms. I gotta schedule an app just to be safe-thanks.
My dad got it now I’m getting checked tomorrow…gotta take this stuff serious
I'm getting checked tomorrow in a colonoscopy,I hope you get yours too and your results are clean and healthy, praying for you 🙏
Pls keep us updated
why we should thankful to u?
I’m 20 and have three of the symptoms plus other symptoms. I just requested an appointment as well. Hope all goes well for us both ❤
Maybe its the food being sold to us?
Maybe it's the chosen diet? We all have the option to eat healthy, including fiber.
It’s the food surely but what food it is needs to be hunted by the people they want to poison people to death higher than the people can see
@@FVWhimsy2010 I can get a burger for $1 or salad for $10 so no, the option is not always there. Where I live doesn’t even have a refrigerator or stove that I can use.

Yes no gmos, only eat organic and always read labels
My mom is watched by her guardian angles. She had a sister who died caused by colon cancer so the doctor advised my mom to get colonoscopy every 2 years. One time she missed her appointment by a year caused by the demand of her work. They found a polyp but it was on its early stage and it was malignant. At first it was stage 0 but when they operated on her it was actually stage 1 cancer growing inside the linings of her colon and not to the space of colon if that makes sense. We are always amazed by how lucky she is because if she got the colonoscopy 1 year earlier the doctor said they wouldn't notice the polyp and by the next appointment the cancer would've progressed more.

Recently found out I have Ulcerative Colitis, and had pretty much all of these symptoms before it was identified and I was put on medication. The growing percentage (I'm not even 25 yet) and these being signs of early colon cancer definitely explains why my doctor had me do more tests and signed me up for an emergency colonoscopy.
Yup. Same here. My GP and my G.I. both acted quickly when I reported the bleeding. I already had all of the other symptoms.
Try fasting let the body clean itself and should fix the problem.
@@declinenutruster6221 Fasting doesn't heal Ulcerative Colitis. It's forever
They’re not the only one to recommend I do this unfortunately. I don’t know why people think fasting “fixes” this. It’s forever and it’s something you can only stop or slow the spread of, not to mention it’s usually unavoidable since it can be genetically passed down (my dad’s side has a history of it but it’s rare for whatever reason. No one’s had it since my great aunt until I was diagnosed).
Tik tok generation 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Those aren't "early symptoms" of colorectal cancer....they show up when you have a big tumor already ! 😮
Another concern to pile on the fore mentioned concerns: GP’s telling patients they don’t need annual blood work. When? Why? According to whom? My GP now tries to convince now that it’s “not necessary.” It’s such a simple testing procedure, my insurance covers it, and it may indicate a severe infection or illness. Why would a GP discourage routine testing?
That seems very wrong. My family physician husband never advised that.
They don't make enough money off it.
@@squirrelcovers6340 Rather, the hospitals and insurance companies don't make money off of it - their shareholders want you to be sick, so they can line their pockets with your misery!
I tried to get a blood test last year and when I went in they told me they didn't have the tubes to take a blood test, so no blood test for 2022...
I agree.
I think it is the process foods we eat, all the unnatural stuff.
Couldn’t agree more.
yep my diet was so so so soooo bad...i am 35 and just got a colonoscopy and found polyps,....thank god i did it before it became cancerous...they removed them so i am clear and now im 80% vegetarian....no processed foods, no chips...no sodas.
exactly. that’s why puberty is affecting kids at earlier ages as well.. recently i met a newly turned 15 year old girl through, her grandmother, and she had DDs.. and ive seen more at youth groups in churches.. and guys are just as bad, getting their hormones early so they either chase girls at 10 or 11 or get addicted to p**n.. we are pumping growth enhancers into our bodies through the animals we eat, not to mention the chemicals sprayed on our produce which are being studied for links to allergens
It's probably going to get worse as climate change has caused food producers to use more dangerous substitutions for ingrediants that are more difficult to acquire these days.
I agree. A lot of preservatives and modified ingredients as well as random chemicals to simply make the food look good like dye and titanium dioxide is definitely not good for us and you know it's bad when most of these ingredients are banned in other states/countries. And then doctors and scientists are like "i wonder why more and more people are getting sick" 🤷♂️
My son died of St 4 colon cancer 11 years ago. He was 28.
Does he have siblings or children? They should be tested. Parents should be tested.
😥 rip .
GOD BLESS YOU
I’m so sorry
I'm 33 last year in July I finally got my colonoscopy and endoscopy. I'd been begging my doctor for over 2 years. I've had every symptom bleeding pain an iron deficiency my whole life. I've had bowel problems as far back as I can remember in Middle School.
I showed my primary doctor pictures from the toilet of the blood they tell me that doctors don't like to look at pictures I could have pulled that off the internet and one of the pictures looks like meat sauce. Finally I got sent to a GI doctor after many stool samples. They found a hiatal hernia And over 50 precancerous colon polyps 37mm. I've had 4 colonoscopys since July 2022. I get my biopsies on the 12th for the 5 biopsies that they did on the new ones they found. 9mm with a15cm base.
Is testing for colon cancer even considered preventive care? I feel like screening for everyone would be free
@@Kelly101Girl well in my honest opinion I believe that everybody should be screened at a young age like 18. I had symptoms back then but it was just constipation for days at a time. I never put two and two together because I was young.
This makes me super nervous. I’m 32 and I’ve symptoms for years, sometimes very painful.
@@philtorrez4198 You should get yourself screened. It might not be cancer, but there are many other precancerous conditions that can have similar symptoms. It's better to know sooner and treat early than to wait til it's too late. Good luck. All the best.
Im in my 30s as well and i just got my colonoscopy, they found 4 polyps...are you sure yours was 50?? That sounds really crazy,,,,i thought 4 was bad. They removed the polyps, biopsied and not cancerous. One was 15 mm the others were 1 mm....colon cancer hits people younger and younger. Now i know i have polyps i will come back every year to get them removed before they become cancerous
My college friend was just diagnosed. Stage IV, spread to lungs, liver and brain. She is 35, normal weight, non-smoker, middle class. Anecdotal but true. Im making RSO but it’s just intended for her comfort.

Societal pressure to use them is so ingrained and I've copped so much flack from people who think all women should use them. Unfortunately they aren't the ones that have to suffer the streaming, red sore eyes, the sneezing, peeling lips and skin and intense itching. Hypoallergenic cosmetics are a con. They aren't hypoallergenic at all.

My GI MD works for Wash U and I got a colonoscopy at 40. A polyp was found😢 I had been having issues for 3 years. I thank god I went when I did.
can you elaborate on the issues?
Not all polyps are cancerous but all colon cancers start as polyps. Don't get scared-just get screenings
Anemia was my biggest symptom. I went to the ER many times for it and they never suggested a colonoscopy. By the time mine was found, it was stage 4. I had to have 2 iron infusions before I could even have my colonoscopy.
Unless you have a visible wound, ER doctors are pretty useless. I'm sorry this happened to you.
What were the fluctuations in the blood work?
Exactly what happened to my son. He had two or three transfusions before the colonoscopy. He is now stage four. He has a stomi and a port for the chemo😰he's thirty years old.
@@msnita8863 what symptoms did he experience ? do you have a family history of colon cancer?
@@tobebanker7659 I will ask him. That's the first time I've heard that terminology, thank you. Had a sonogram today. 30 % less tumor
Thanks for putting the four symptoms in the description! Abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, ongoing diarrhea and iron deficiency anemia.
thanks for not saying a single word about processed meats. Class 1 carcinogen. Heaven forbid we actually try to PREVENT these cases...... :/
Agree The amount of bacon used in American cooking is astounding. They must be eating pounds of nitrates a year.
Iron Deficient Anemia not redundant?!🧐🤔
Exactly
It's crazy, how that cured meat isn't more restricted despite all the evidence.
It's got to be our food.
Bingo. 👍
Everyone assumes you have to be bleeding. Yet my dad, who got right-sided colon cancer, never had bleeding or anaemia. He had a niggling pain initially, then rapid weight loss. He was terminal when eventually diagnosed, and died 7 months later. The consultant said the cancer was ten years in the making, and the pain was as a result of it having spread to his liver. He called it the silent killer. If I could turn back the clock I would urge my dad to have regular colonoscopies, as his father had died of the same thing.

My father died of colon cancer in 1990 at the age of 57 the only symptoms my father had was constipation it varies soo much from person to person at th time they only did tests if you were having issues now they test you regardless I started my test at the age of 30 just to be ahead of it now I'm 55 I go every 5 years
What tests do you do?
JR Pacer They're testing you now because colon cancer has a genetic link. Around 20 percent of colon cancer patients have inherited risk for it. With your dad being diagnosed, you have a higher risk than most people.
This is what I keep telling people. My dad died of CRC at age 64. I started to get screening tests at 37. Colonoscopy every 3 years because I'm high risk. It's better to get screening and prevent it at the polyp stage
In between those every 5 yr. colonoscopies, you should have stool tests for occult blood!!

Go to the next doctor
Pay from ur pocket
I got an endoscopy after 1 year of begging my doctors. You need to exagerate the symptoms, don't care to lie. I learnt this because a friend of mine got diagnosed with stage 4 sromach cancer at 26, she had mild symptoms for years, doctors never made and endoscopy until she was vomiting blood because she was "too young to be at risk"
@@xVadRay If it does not grow yet, you can never see it via endoscopy.
We have a family friend, she had already undergone 2 series recommended preventive colonoscopies, all were good, not until a year & few months after her last one, she developed bad symptoms, the doctors only did CT scan as she just recently got 1, after about 4 months , they finally scoped her because she had no poop for 8 days & found out ...they did surgery, but she died in the hospital few days after surgery.
If it's really colon cancer, it is quick to grow.
1- Occult stool test, detect blood in stool.
2- CEA blood test, a Colon Tumor makers in blood.
3- Listing to your body. Lower Abdominal pain was my symptom..
I know Kaiser wouldn't let you do Colonscopy if your stool blood test is negative.
Everything is toxic and poisoned… purposely, because this is the beast system.
I agree.
And key factors per CDC:
Lack of regular physical activity.
A diet low in fruit and vegetables.
A low-fiber and high-fat diet, or a diet high in processed meats.
Overweight and obesity.
Alcohol consumption.
Tobacco use.
Thank you so much I’m going to go fix myself now
You forgot the fact that the FDA allows these carcinogens to be put into the food we eat...there's that too.
Computer gaming -fight or flight- suspended peristalsis- megaColon - = Blood in stool Cancer
@felixrimurutempest3359 LOL, doubt it but you're welcome
That list applies to just about any ailment. Doctors don't really know what causes it, so they put out this generic health advice.
Many doctors will dismiss your symptoms because you are young. I was having issues and had to demand a colonoscopy. They found a few polyps, removed them and tested them. No cancer thank God! You have to be your own advocate because most doctors just do not want to listen. I hope they are listening now. People in their 30s need to be screened, 20s if you have family history. It could save lives.

Well maybe stop adding all these toxic additives into our foods that dont need them that are clearly toxic, and add things like fiber, and and wuit putting so many preservatives and using toxic packaging. Medicine is great but prevention is also great. We have all this information but its not apllied.
You can actually feel the symptoms of anemia if you're aware of it. Feeling tired, dizzy/lightheaded and out of breath are the usual signs of anemia.
I put off getting a colonoscopy for years and it was a big mistake please get the procedure done if not for yourself think about your family.
I had a pre-cancerous colon polyp removed at age 38…4 years later and I’m still paranoid from these ongoing symptoms. My colonoscopy 2 years ago was clear though.
These are the main symptoms of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Crohn’s & Colitis) a disease which significantly increases your chance of getting Colon Cancer.
Maybe yes, maybe no, but most of the time , the lining of the intestines of the patients with colon cancer are good except there's big bump/tumor like that easily bleeds.
@@rosea1021 I'm not sure what you mean when you say "maybe yes, maybe no". My statement was that the symptoms listed in the video are the main symptoms of colon cancer, and that those that have IBD are significantly more likely to get Colon Cancer, both of which are proven facts. So, if there is a correlation between IBD and Colon Cancer, then there is also a correlation between the symptoms of IBD and Colon Cancer.
@@englishtea1057 I understand you, when I said maybe, it depends on a person's genetic component. Most people we scoped with colon cancer have clean intestinal linings , then an abnormal growth somewhere , only a portion of that intestine.
Example, we had a family friend who had undergone already 2 series of preventive colonoscopies per age, all her result were good, not until more than a year after the last one, she developed bad symptoms, the doctor associate it to her irritable bowel syndrome & did not scoped her because she recently had one. Until about 4 months later, she did not pooped for 8 days, that's the time they did colonoscopy & found out she had colon cancer stage 4, they did surgery, but she died in the hospital just few days after the surgery.
Irritable Bowel Disease DOES NOT increase colon cancer risk. It's just a functional disease. Don't spread panic to people. One third of the population has some form of IBS so no
Regular fasting. IF and longer fasts. Worth a try at the very least. Longer fasts give your body time to clean out cells etc and heal. Meditation doesn't hurt either.
Very informative 👍
After years and years of telling us that it was all in our heads, anxiety, or IBS. So many have IBD it's ridiculous.
you have diarrhea?
How does a professional news network NOT proofread their spelling before it is aired on TV? Abdominal is a basic word that everyone should know how to spell. This is absolutely embarrassing. Who do you all hire to run your network?
Maybe they just don't care anymore? Lol I see it all the time on RUclips
The writers are on strike right now 😂
I notice this a lot. Nobody proofreads/edits anymore? Sad that things change for the worse, especially with technology. There's no excuse.
They are captions fool 😊
my brother passed from colon cancer and he was only 38
Isn’t diarrhea a symptom of everything?
I'm experiencing these symptoms 😢
Last two months two people that I've known died of colon cancer and they both where in there 40s.
These are not “new” signs, I’ve been a nurse since 1993 and these are the same symptoms we screened back then.
They didn't say "new signs" they said earliest signs
@@PV.. they claim it’s ‘new’ research. It’s still the exact same signs.
Report ought have been titled Confirms rather than identifies but thats not clickbait enough. Welcme to the modern world where old knowledge gets claimed as new discoveries for clickbait
I agree with you. I am a Colon Cancer stage 3 patient and also a Medical Technologist.
Low Abdominal paint and Rectal bleeding were my symptoms. Initially I thought it was hemorrhoids that caused rectal bleeding. But it was caused by the tumor. 5 years before, my colonscopy report was good and was told to come back in 10 years.
Iron Deficiency Anemia generally caused by blood loss chronically. It would take 6 months to a year to see it. I work in the lab and reading the Hematology report and looking the blood cells everyday at work. My yearly routine lab work was normal. The only test I forgot was to mention is elevated CEA tumor maker for Colon Cancer.
Unless we require insurance companies to lower the age of covered colonoscopies this info doesn’t help much.
My estranged father was diagnosed with stage four colon cancer recently, however he was very abusive (mainly verbal) so I don’t really feel sorry for him.
Oh boy oh boy 😅

I’m 26 and had a colonoscopy because I was bleeding. They said it was hemorrhoids but I think I also have IBS. IBS isn’t found in colonoscopy but stool samples. If you are bleeding down there then demand a colonoscopy. If they refuse then request for it to be in the notes and ask for a copy of the report.
I think it's really important to educate ourselves on colon cancer - what it does to the body - what to do if you have it, and how to prevent it. contact (Dr Oyalo) on channel for natural cure on his channel
Abdominal spelling. All of those have classically been symptoms of a potential for CRC. Nothing new but always important to be reminded of this.
Me and my family get checked every year (blood/stool test) and the specialist at the hospital shedules 1 colonoscopy every 5 years. 2 years ago they found some polips in my mums bowls and they burned those away. And for me they found I had 2 "holes" leading to my galbladder instead of one (stomach). Mum is sheduled for another colonoscopy this year as they found the polips 2 years ago.

I have constipation since 3. Years since the corona pandemic has started. and I've been visiting doctors for one year and all they say to me you're too young for colonoscopy (I'm 19). I insisted doctors for it but all they said was try to move more drink water and eat healthy because I'm kinda fat too. I'm so worried if it could be cancer or something else, even though there are nobody with cancer in my family members :(
I’d definitely recommend that you absolutely DEMAND a colonoscopy- like “I will not be able to leave this office until I am set up for a colonoscopy.” I’m 20 and am having a cocktail of symptoms as well. They can test you they just don’t want to because doctors tend to brush off symptoms.
At least get a Cologuard test.
@@wholeNwon i will this year, but my doctor is worried that I might have ISB as I can only go to toilet when I feel excited
@@wholeNwon the only test they've made was examining feces
It could be stress but I would get the colonoscopy to rule out anything serious.
All the junkfood/processed foods people eat.
Who would have thought that pain and rectal bleeding and diarrhea is a sign of something unusual
Unusual yes, but doesn't always mean it's something life threatening like colon cancer and that is the reason why in many cases people don't realize it until it's late. You can have rectal bleeding from hemorrhoids or wiping too hard after straining, diarrhea from IBS, stomach pain from eating incompatible food or other digestive issues.
I hope to have courage to go check up but i just fear of having something poke my behind ...i just cant do it...😢
Do a Cologuard test.
You just poop in a box and mail it back. Won't get rid of polyps, but pretty accurate detecting cancer.
Im freaking out about that procedure as weññ
Blame food manufacturers
Its because all the younger folks in this generation eat unhealthy junk food/fast food nowadays it increases the risk.
They're very sedentary on average as well
Yeah, the older generations in my family have noticed that. They always say the younger generations are never cooking at home like they used too, it was a treat back then to eat out. Also that we have too much of a variety in junk foods.
@@ProjectOcean259 their parents are lazy , my mom cooks chapatis for me she is 69 years old, i have never eaten outside in my life
@@eggbenedict-gt7mw no, their parents aren't lazy. You are lazy and expectant. That sucks
Jacory......ALSO, ...LOTS of stress, etc
I got a colonoscopy Thank God everything is normal
I should probably start doing yearly check ups 😅
People need to clean their guts. People used to know to do this and they used to care about the cleanliness of the earth and their bodies.
I think we need to ask why this increase has happened.
My Great Grandpa Sam had colon cancer and he was fine. However he died of lung cancer because he had an on and off addiction to cigarettes. May he rest in peace.
Can they explain why cases of these cancers are happening to younger people?
Our TOXIC "food" - endless chemical additives. But hey, great for the greedy pharma and medical INDUSTRY.
Probably all owned by the same Oligarchs.
They did but you have to be really nit picky with grammar to hear it - it's because they're testing younger people. Getting colon cancer has never ever been restricted to people 55 an older. Children die from it. it's because they're testing younger so they're finding it sooner.
@@kjpcgaming9296 ... So no increase in younger people, just earlier testing. Thanks for the explanation. Maybe it won’t be a death sentence if diagnosed early.
I believe a national news service should be able to spell ‘abdominal’ correctly. Please! 🙏 Otherwise you give the viewer the impression that your material is auto-generated. At which point we will stop watching.
That makes no sense though. If something were auto-generated it would DEFINITELY be spelled correctly 🤣 humans are the ones that make errors
how to know if its hemorroid or rectal bleed?
I wonder if ('you) gotten checked 😢😢😢
i don't have any of these, thank goodness, but come on now abdominal pain?? that could literally be any sickness in the book they should remove that one
It's the first and most common symptom, though. I guessed they should have put more descriptors of the pain. It's usually a vague, PERSISTENT pain of moderate to severe intensity. The key word is persistent. Months and months of the pain. Not just a day or 2 of tummyaches. Like you had a bad meal and there's no poo to release. Or when you finally do poo, it's black and sticky like tar or in small dark pellets with an amount inconsistent to the pain.
@@videowatcher6246 yeah agree some sort of better description of the type of pain would have been helpful because the abdomen contains many organs
She said all four, maybe they take Deborah James as example. All those can be symptoms for C- diff & entamoeba histolytica but with those infection you can recover with meds and for a long time symptom free, unless you get infected again.
@@rosea1021 its not all 4, I only had 1 symptom..
That's the only symptom I had.
eat less processed food, more natural food.
My mom has been having this weird nerve symptoms around the side of her stomache and this video almost made my heart drop...glad she doesn't have any of these symptoms.

me with all those symptoms.......... now im scared
I am currently having these symptoms and my doctor thinks I should just change my diet because I don’t eat healthy plus I’m young so he believes nothing is wrong with me anyone else had these symptoms? What was the outcome?
Thank Jehovah, so far so good.
I have iron definitely aneimia and when it was untreated I definitely felt it. Untreated it made me weak I had palpitations and it can cause heart failure
Are these early symptoms? I think those ones are for a sort of mid-advanced cancer.
Eat natural foods, stay away from the processed stuff and Get your fibre and H20 or so Im told by elder friends, in their 60s and 70s and are healthy and opiod free {Not on any prescribed meds}. They still hangout and drink beer in bars lol.
Fake news
Survivors bias, look it up.
Colon cancer has always been so difficult for me to understand, even though I've learned about it several times. i got cured with natural herbs remedy from Dr oyalo channel
It's definitely this toxic, gmo foods
Anything that’s not organic
Not that all organic stuff I’d heard either obviously but that’s just where you should start before reading labels
Sedentary lifestyles are more common than ever. I'm not discounting the processed foods or lower quality water but you can't expect to be healthy if you aren't taking care of your personal meat wagon
oh how the organic, non-gmo industry brainwashes people!
Witnessing miraculous healing with igrotum. A true blessing in my cancer journey.
Bro what? You can actually feel when you’re anemic. I’ve been anemic so many times very very bad. I felt so weak and light headed and and drained.
Seems like a convulotion between pharma and food companies
Bingo!
Iron deficient anemia you can definitely feel… I almost died from it. The symptoms were there but I didn’t really feel it until it was extreme.
What’s the symptoms?
@@chihayaayase1299 passing out, weight loss, low energy, heavy periods for women, low energy, paleness, rapid heart rate, heart palpitations…etc
@@djmccann4437 Interesting. Is it possible doctors can overlook it in blood tests? Last year had terrible anxiety with tremors and fast heart rate as well weight loss. She looked into my thyroid, liver, kidney and pancreas, and hormones. Strangely she said everything was normal even tho I was far from normal. She did find my cholesterol was low which was understandable since I wasn’t eating due to my anxiety. I’ve gotten better but I still have drawbacks.
@@Sol36900 you should be able to find anemia through regular iron/folate/and hemoglobin blood tests. But there are different types of anemia that have separate testing.
For anxiety- maybe check vitamin D levels. Also I’ve experienced doctors not checking thoroughly for autoimmune issues.
I had to pause the video and cuss the reporter out when she said you can't feel the symptoms of anemia. I have a series of 5 infusions 2 years ago. Yeah, I can tell the difference. So great not feeling like death warmed over everyday.
Wonder how much our diet, lifestyle, (Lots of screen time) have to do with all of these diseases.
What is abdonminal pain?
Unfortunately doctors don’t care about your symptoms unless you have a PPO plan.
Throw processed frozen foods and takeout to the curb. We benefit from a more natural diet full of antioxidants berries, black tea and turmeric. We gain upset stomach and constipation when we eat meat. We all need to ditch processed foods even cereal for mostly natural foods.
@@spirals7354well mine are definitely directly linked to meat, particularly fatty ground beef and other processed meats
meat is not the enemy, it's processed foods and processed meat. unprocessed meat is very healthy for humans.
I just have blood when i wipe never in my stools. Or in poop. Near the end of when im done wiping any thoughts?
That looks like it hurts...
I can’t help but wonder if it’s the cell phone in our pockets. I have a precancerous polyp in my colon and it’s pretty much in the same spot where I usually keep my phone. I’m 46 and the only symptom I have is the abdominal pain. However, two gastroenterologists have told me that due to the size and location I should not have any pain so none of them think the pain is from the polyp even though it’s in the same exact spot and the CT scan and MRI showed no other issues anywhere including the polyp. The colonoscopy I had to ask for is what showed the polyp.

"Routine annual checkup" is a luxury in this country. We need Medicare for all!
Im genetically predisposed to colon cancer since 2 of my aunts passed away from it im especially sure of it since i have terrible digestive issues ever since i was literally a toddler im tired of being scared of colon cancer
What is cancer?
Go back to a traditional diet with animal fats and organ meats. Quit processed foods cut back added sugars and drink water. Diet is the key factor here!
Organ meats cause gout though
This runs in my family so my dad has to get tested constantly.. I'll have to get them one day too -_- not until my 40's though (So say all the Doctors). Not eating red meat helps though. I don't think there are any old people in my family that haven't had at least one form of cancer if not multiple at some point. Breasts, colons, uteri, lips and more have been cut out of half my family I swear. They do this eye test too, not sure what it has to do with colon cancer but you can apparently tell by looking at the person's eyes? I live in Canada so maybe this isn't a thing other countries do?
U look pale ,
wouldn't wait until your 40's with your family history. do the test you for the gene
I don't think simply red meat is the culprit, it's processed foods, including processed meat.
@@imageword5576 lol no you are right, it's one of many things they tell you to avoid. Specifically red meat and processed meats break down the lining of the guts, increasing the risk of cancer. They contain more haem iron naturally though which is why they tell you to avoid them but I've never really cared for most red meats so doesn't bother me. I do miss bacon though
I’ve definitely heard that jaundice can be an early sign of cancer and I live in the US
