What are the chances of a 27yr-old female having colon cancer


What are the chances of a 27yr-old female having colon cancer?
My fiance has had symptoms that have led doctors to suspect many different things. She goes in to a gastroenterologist(sp?) tomorrow. Her blood tests revealed that she is losing minimal blood internally. I feel like her doctor is sparing her the scary possibilities. What could be the causes of this?

The bleeding could be anything from an ulcer to a rectal tear or it could be from an eroded esophagus or from many things. Yes cancer is possible but unless they feel the blood is for sure coming from the colon then I doubt it would be colon cancer.

my cause was bleeding ulcers. i had 27 in my stomach and 3 in my anal canel. i wish her the best of luck and hope it is nothing serious. if it is ulcers its quick on day operation but she gets a whole month off from work. at least that's what my boss did for me. i don't handle stress well and that is how i ended up in that situation.

There are many possibilities, but I think if the doc had suspected colon cancer, then he would have sent her for a colonostomy straight away. Sending her to the gastroenterologist suggests that he thinks the bleeding may be coming from her stomach. If they're saying minimal blood, they're obviously not too worried. Hope they get to the bottom of it and find out that it's something very minor and easily treated. http://www.freewebs.com/spiritualhealing
