What were your first symptoms of Colon/Rectal Cancer


What were your first symptoms of Colon/Rectal Cancer?
This is addressed to those currently diagnosed with or those who have survived colon/rectal cancer. I know that many times there are no early symptoms of this cancer. So, I would like to know when did you first suspect something was wrong? I am already aware of the symptoms of colorectal cancer, I am just curious as to what symptoms those diagnosed had.

I'm not a cancer patient but I do work for a gastroenterologist who was actually diagnosed with colon cancer last summer (ironic huh?) Anyway, he didn't have ANY symptoms he just decided to have a colonscopy. So if you do experience symptoms, the first might be blood in the stool. If you have a family history of cancer, you might want to get a colonscopy.
