I have been having stomach problemson for about 3 and a half weeks. I took a medication witch cleared it up for about 3-4 days. I have alos been going to the john and nothing but mucus comes out? Is this colon cancer? I know it is not a stomach virus. My stools are green and some times real dark. Theres no blood. The mucus is a green yellowish color. Sometimes I have to sit and wait about 5 mins to get a bowl movement going. Then it seems like I still have to go? Idk know if its IBS but im getting scared. Im not old.

I am twenty years old and I have recently not been feeling well (for about a week or so). I have not quite felt right and I have had frequent spells of bad nausea. When i dont feel nauseated I feel very "off-balance" and almost dizzy like. In the past few days I have had a loss of appetite as well. Recently I began having a dull pain in my pelvis right where my ovaries sit and if I push down on my pelvis is almost feels hard or inflammed. About a year ago I had very similiar symptoms for about a week and then I had an appendectomy. I feel like my body is giving me the same signs as it did before. After researching over the net I have linked many of my symptoms to ovarian cancer symptoms. Could it be possible that at only 20 I could have developed ovarian cancer? Im not sure if I am just nervous and overreacting but I want to be cautious. Im a college student and I made an appointment at my student health center tomorrow... any advice would help! Thanks

He has had a second opinion, but he won't do any follow-up and he often has a congested chest. He has never smoked in his life and I don't think it's hereditary. He works 7 days a week, and I'm worried about him.

Despite healthy people eating the right and healthy foods with good exercise, how is it possible that these people who take good care of themselves get cancer?

But isn't it suppose to be the other way around? In other words, I mean that people who don't take care of their health and eat fatty, unhealthy foods get cancer. I doesn't make sense when healthy people like healthy non-smoking, healthy people get lung cancer.

I know the causes of cancer is to eat unhealthy foods and not do many healthy activities.

But my question is......
What is the cause of lung cancer for people who are non-smokers and take good care of their health? The wife the actor Christopher Reeve(Dana Reeve) died from lung cancer even though she was a non-smoker and a very healthy person.

When you choose to answer my question, don't answer with "that's how life is" or "that's the way it is" or "life is unfair". Please give a specific and elaborate answer to my question.

Is nature responsible?

We found out today that my grandmother has cancer and my mother said that the oncologist is planning on using radiation to ease her pain. My question is, what does radiation do? I know, eases pain, but how?

I have just found out via mammagram, dye, sonogram and biopsy that I have Infiltrating Ductal Cacinoma Clinical Stage1 grade I/III. It is a mass not a tumor 1.5 centemeters and they will remove it. Now, I have to get two oncologists. I have no idea why...they will try seed radiation and Tamoxifen. I am angry and don't want to take the drug and probably will refuse. What happens if I just have the surgery, check out the lymph glands and do the seed radiation and stop. I am alone and don't want this to go on forever. Dying is not so bad as long as it doesn't take years. If you have experience tell me the stories because everyone at the hospital just assumes everyone wants to live. I have already told them there will be no more surgeries, no harmones and no chemo. They think I am just upset...I am not...why can't I just do what I want to do?
