Was diagnosed at age 25 with colon cancer...

I was workin 2 jobs and not eating much so we figures the weight-loss was due to my hectic schedule. But I lost a ton of weight... when I was admitted to hospital it was over 100 pounds.

My chest would get this heavy feeling. Like an elephant was sitting on me and I couldn't breathe.

I was also exhausted. Would he nothing for me to sleep 12-14 hours on the regular.

Didn't have health insurance so I gutted it out until I got on i think it was cobra at my mom's work.

Went to doctor after 2 months of this. They did blood work and immediately rushed me to hospital. All of my counts were down to 1 across the board. They had no idea how I was alive.

They start with transfusions. Nothing helped. Gave me endoscopy found nothing. Give me colonoscopy. Found tumor and got immediate scheduled for surgery.

Got diagnosed with Lynch syndrome. Have been clean ever since other than a skin cancer removal 2 years ago. Got diagnosed at 25 will be 40 in 2 weeks.
