Ok well lets start off by saying I am 25 years old. My family has a long history of medical problems, ranging from vascular diseases, to colon cancer in my sister who was diagnosed at 35, BUT they assume it had been there for almost 6 years at least! So I have some questions. Two and a half years ago my bowels were normal. Then after I had my daughter they started to change. First I noticed mucous about two months after I had her. Then it started getting worse. I was only going regularly about twice a week, and when I wasnt going, I was only letting out mucous. NO BLOOD at all. Then about a year ago, my bowels started to become thinner, then got to the point where they were pencil thin. Now a year later (two years after first symptom) my bowels are ONLY pencil thin, I have mucous daily sometimes ALOT of it. When I go to the bathroom or feel like I have to go, sometimes or most of the time nothing comes out except for mucous. And when I do go (maybe every other day if lucky), I never feel satisfied. Sometimes I lie in bed with the urge to go, and try to go and nothing comes out. I have been feeling SUPER sleepy, and has gotten really bad! I have actually become kind of dizzy lately, with light sensitivity to my eyes which radiats a big headache, I have pain in my right eye and cheek bone, and ALSO at the upper part of my nose on the right side between my eyes but on the right side ONLY and also hurts my nose when I chew but doesnt hurt my jaw, and this has started about a month ago now, where it sometimes seems unbearable and debilitating, I do not know if this kind of sign has ANYTHING to do with my bowel symptoms or not, MEANING if it is colon cancer or colitis cause can be bacterial, could it have spread to my nasal cavity or something? Anyways my question is, do any of my symptoms seem like colon cancer, or could it just be colitis? I have really become worried now after some abdominal discomfort on my left side kind of towards my hip.
