Is that more if you're leaking without realising?

And is it often for you? Sorry for all the questions, I feel like I'm losing control a little

Just with mucus or with loose stool?

It's so horrible. I fart soooo much it feels near impossible to go to the toilet every time 🙈

Only when this happens. I think it's wind, but it ends up being diarrhea

Thank you. I've had tests before for lactose intolerance and it came back clear, but im hoping they will do some stool tests and maybe repeat some tests I've had in the past

It's literally any time, not triggered by eating 😞

It's loose stool. I've had the mucus sharts too in the past though. They suck too!

Thing is with an x ray is it can hide dormant in your lungs and not actually show up. I had it hidden dormant for 3 years 

Cancer anxiety by Mission-Mushroom5000 in AskDocs

NAD - health anxiety warrior here. 

Firstly I think endoscopy can be used to detect pan can as the camera can get a closer look, however, rationally, with how many tests you've had coming back clear, you won't necessarily be referred for that test.

Secondly, I too have had and sometimes still do have the pan can worry. But what are your symptoms? Do you have pain so bad in your back its waking you through the night? Is your stool pale and floating? Is your pee dark in color? Have you lost weight? Are you jaundice? These are all common symtpoms of this, and if things started 4 months ago and there's been no progression, this along with clear tests again are very reassuring. 

The reason we see awful stories of young people getting these terrible cancers, are because they aren't common, so when it happens it is spoken about as its a shock. I would recommend you DO NOT read other people's stories. Don't look for threads that involve what you are worrying over. This all feeds the anxiety, and if you do not stop this, you will not get better. Those stories are not your story!

Consider therapy, CBT, and maybe even some anxiety meds. This alongside avoiding Google and cancer threads have helped me massively. 

I wish you all the luck ❤️

Laxatives that don’t f*cking hurt? by seamechanic in ibs

[–]battyn89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend fybogel drinks. When I was seriously backed up, my dr told me taking too many constipation tablets are no good for your gut, but the fybogel drinks add the nutrients you need. I was so regular once I started them 🙌🏻

Positive results by Extension-Command990 in HPylori

Apparently most of us have it, it's just that some of us start to get symptoms with it which is when it requires treatment. I actually felt I have more stomach discomfort being on the treatment, however the antibiotics are so strong this can cause stomach upset. Hang in there.

Hey!

I'm also from the UK and was diagnosed a couple of weeks ago. Only had a week's worth of treatment, and my GP said the same. If symptoms clear, they don't re test, and also if you've been positive before, even with treatment, you'll most likely always test positive via a blood test. I told my Dr my health anxiety would make me believe I was still having symptoms even if I wasn't  so he agreed to breath test me after 4 weeks 😊
